Each episode of Tales from the Crypt is a self-contained story hosted by the Crypt Keeper, a wisecracking corpse known for his macabre puns. With its signature unrestricted gore, profanity, and dark irony, the show\u2019s episode styles range from comedy to drama and deliver twisted moral lessons where \u201cbad people\u201d meet poetically horrific ends \u2013 and issues like greed, lust, and moral decay lead to tragic consequences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cTales from the Crypt isn\u2019t just a series \u2014 it\u2019s a cornerstone of horror storytelling. Becoming its exclusive streaming home is both an honor and a thrill for us at Shudder,\u201d said AMC\u2019s Courtney Thomasma. \u201cThis is the kind of genre-defining, wonderfully twisted entertainment our members crave, and we\u2019re proud to give The Crypt Keeper a place to cackle once again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Season 1 will debut on May 1 on the streamer, with additional seasons rolling out every Friday through June 12. The news was announced at this year\u2019s Overlook Film Festival<\/a>, where John Kassir \u2014 voice of the creepy-crawly host The Crypt Keeper \u2014 revealed an all-new teaser for fans to gobble up while they wait for their favorite episodes to premiere.
