CHANNEL ZERO Creator Admits More of the Creepypasta Series ‘Hard to Imagine’

While Channel Zero creator Nick Antosca thinks it is doubtful we’ll ever get more of SYFY’s creepypasta anthology series, he says he’d develop it for a new network.

Antosca tells io9: “It’s hard to imagine that it’ll come back. It’s had a healthy second life on Shudder. If they or anybody else wanted to do another season, yeah, I think I’d do it. I have a lot of ideas for seasons that were never made. I also have a lot of concepts where I was like, ‘I wonder if there’s a creepypasta that would serve as a good jumping-off point to tell this kind of story?’ where I never found the right one. And those ideas could end up as features or seasons of a [new series].”

He adds: “In the longer-distance future, I’d love to do a new horror series that takes the ideas and techniques of Channel Zero further. I’d like to keep working with the folks who made the show what it was. And of course, Don Mancini, who worked on Channel Zero, was on that Shudder panel too because we’re doing Chucky now.”

Antosca and Mancini’s Child’s Play TV series, Chucky hits SYFY in 2021.

Season 1 centered on a child psychologist who returns to his hometown to determine if his brother’s disappearance is connected to a series of similar incidents and a bizarre children’s television series that aired at the same time.
