The hit horror comic series Something is Killing the Children<\/em> is headed to the big (and small) screen. According to The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/a>, Blumhouse is developing a live-action movie and adult animated series based on the comics. There are no details yet on the release timeline or casting.<\/p>\n

Something is Killing the Children<\/em>, created by writer James Tynion IV and illustrator Werther Dell\u2019Edera, follows monster hunter Erica Slaughter in a reality where monsters exist and only children can see them. While it was announced<\/a> back in 2023 that Netflix would be developing a TV series based on the comic and helmed by Dark<\/em> creators Baran Bo Odar and Jantje Friese (which could have been awesome, honestly), that plan was scrapped last year, according to THR<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It’s a big week for comics I love getting the TV\/film treatment, and I am cautiously hyped (emphasis on cautious); the SIKTC<\/em> news comes on the heels of the announcement that Charles Burns’ Black Hole<\/em> is being adapted for a Netflix series<\/a> by Jane Schoenbrun (I Saw the TV Glow<\/em>, We’re All Going to the World’s Fair<\/em>). Fingers crossed that they don\u2019t suck!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
