In anticipation of the Season 2 premiere of the series, Creepshow released the synopses for the first two new episodes.
Season 2's first episode will premiere on April 1 on the horror streaming service Shudder with two new stories. "Model Kid" looks to be a scary take on Toy Story, in which an unpopular kid — who relies on the company of his toys — learns just how "supportive" they can be. Meanwhile, "Public Television of the Dead" follows some daytime TV hosts who summon some dark forces with a mysterious book. "Model Kid" is written by John Esposito and directed by Greg Nicotero, while "Public Television of the Dead" is written by Rob Schrab and directed by Greg Nicotero.
Episode 2 — which will premiere on April 8 — will feature a story titled "Dead & Breakfast," where a true-crime vlogger stays at a haunted bed and breakfast. "Pesticide" will follow an exterminator who is tasked with what is described as a "big job." "Dead & Breakfast" is written by Michael Rousselet & Erik Sandoval and directed by Axelle Carolyn. "Pesticide" is written by Frank Dietz and directed by Greg Nicotero.
Filming on Season 2 of the horror series was supposed to begin in March 2020 but was delayed after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down most of the world's film and TV sets. Principle photography took place this past September, including production on a holiday special which premiered in December. During the pause, showrunner Greg Nicotero and the rest of the writers started working on Season 3, which received the official green light in February.
The full synopses for the two episodes can be found below:
