Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Last week we learned that the first season of the Shudder streaming service's hit anthology series Creepshow will be airing on AMC sometime later this year, and now there's some great news for those of us who still like to have our movies and TV shows on physical media: the first season of Creepshow is coming to DVD and Blu-ray on June 2nd, 2020. 

Copies of the DVD and Blu-ray are available for pre-order on Amazon. 

Inspired by the George A. Romero / Stephen King anthology films CREEPSHOW and CREEPSHOW 2, the Creepshow series is 

still the most fun you’ll ever have being scared! A comic book comes to life in a series of twelve vignettes over six episodes, exploring terrors from murder to the supernatural and unexplainable. Haunted dollhouses, werewolves, murderous goblins, villainous trick-or-treaters, the dead, and medical marvels are just a few of the things to watch out for in this new series. You never know what will be on the next page…
