Dana Gould Now Discusses New PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE in Our Exclusive Interview

Dana Gould Now Discusses New PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE in Our Exclusive Interview The Simpsons certainly contributed to many episodes of Treehouse of Horror over the years. But it wasn’t until recently that his passion for the genre started coming through in his work. Now, after penning the inventive season 2 finale of Creepshow and last Halloween’s Toys of Terror, Gould is also writing and researching his next foray into the genre about a real-life séance.
