SYFY announced today that they have given the greenlight to two new horror shows slated for a 2021 release, most notably a series inspired by George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead.
SYFY will be partnering with Cartel Entertainment, the company behind Shudder’s “Creepshow,” to bring the 10-episode series to the small screen. The series will reportedly tell the story of six strangers struggling to survive the first 24 hours of a zombie invasion. The series is being written by showrunners Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas.
The second horror series announced was an original series titled “The Surrealtor,” which follows realtor Nick Roman and his elite team of specialists who go above and beyond to sell homes no one else wants to come near. The team works together to research, investigate, and fix up haunted and possessed homes. (As a side note, I kinda want to see a reality TV series along this same premise with actual haunted houses.)
“The Surrealtor” will be a 10-episode series co-produced by SYFY and Blue Ice Pictures.
Both shows are expected to scare their way into your living room next year.
