DreamWorks Animation is gearing up for Halloween with the official trailer and more details of its horror series Fright Krewe, created by Eli Roth (Hostel film franchise, Hemlock Grove) and James Frey (American Gothic, Queen & Slim, Alpha Betas). The supernatural 10-episode tale will begin October 2 on Hulu and Peacock.
Logline: An ancient prophecy and a Voodoo Queen put misfit teens in charge of saving New Orleans from the biggest demonic threat it’s faced in almost two centuries. But, honestly? Saving the world might be easier than becoming friends.
The series will star Sydney Mikayla as the voice of Soleil, Tim Johnson Jr. as Maybe, Grace Lu as Missy, Chester Rushing as Stanley, Terrence Little Gardenhigh as Pat and Jacques Colimon as Belial.
Fright Krewe will also rely on a recurring cast including Vanessa Hudgens as Madison, Josh Richards as Nelson, X Mayo as Alma, Rob Paulsen as Lou Garou, David Kaye as Mayor Furst, JoNell Kennedy as Marie Laveau and Judy Le Claire, Melanie Laurent as Fiona Bunrady, Chris Jai Alex as Otis Bunrady, Reggie Watkins as Paulie, Cherise Boothe as Ayida Weddo and Ayizan, Keston John as Papa Legba and Ogoun, Grey Delisle as Judith Le Claire and Krizia Bajos as Luciana Rodriguez.
Roth and Frey are executive producers alongside Joanna Lewis and Kristine Songco; co-executive producers are Oscar-nominated animator Shane Acker (9, Crusoe) and Mitchell Smith.
