Viewer beware, you re in for even more scares. Shudder has renewed Greg Nicotero s
Creepshowreboot for a third season ahead of the Season 2 premiere this April, the spine-tingling platform confirmed Thursday.
A sophomore outing of the horror anthology was ordered in October 2019, but production was delayed for several months by the COVID-19 health crisis.

We love a good retelling whether it’s a favorite fairy tale, ancient myth, or epic tale, it’s always great to see old things made new. Part of the reason we love these stories is because they’re so malleable; with themes that span the breadth of the human experience, tales of love, revenge, and adventure can find a home in any place and time, with characters that feel both familiar and fresh at the same time.
As we started thinking about of favorite retellings of classic stories, so many brilliant adaptations, updates, and re-workings came to mind. Here are just a few that we adore! Please feel free to add your own in the comments.
