Shudder Announces Halfway to Halloween Slate of Programming and Specials
For some audiences, October is the time of year to dive deep into the world of horror , but as all Shudder subscribers know, the genre should be celebrated all year long. While we might be six months away from the spookiest time of the year, Shudder is releasing a variety of new specials in April to celebrate being Halfway to Halloween, with the service also debuting a number of titles to help you get into the spirit of the spooky season long before it arrives. You can learn more about all of Shudder's exciting new offerings below before they start being unveiled on April 1st. Shudder's lineup of Halfway to Horror offerings are as follows: Slasher: Ripper Two-Episode Season Premiere Thursday, April 6th Slasher: Ripper takes the Slasher franchise back in time to the late 19th century and stars Eric McCormack ( Will & Grace ) as Basil Garvey, a charismatic tycoon whose success is only rivaled by his ruthlessness, as he oversees a city on the cusp of a new century, and a social upheaval that will see its streets run red with blood. There's a killer stalking the mean streets, but instead of targeting the poor and downtrodden like Jack the Ripper, The Widow is meting out justice against the rich and powerful. The only person standing in the way of this killer is the newly promoted detective, Kenneth Rijkers, whose ironclad belief in justice may wind up being yet another victim of The Widow .
