WORLD OF DEATH Ep. 164 – Killer Deal

Published

on

Greetings friends and neighbors, it is that time again, spring is in the air! Time to think about opening the shutters and dusting the cobwebs, maybe fix a few things around the ole crypt. Then again, maybe it’s time to look for a new place to call your own. I think you’re in luck, today we get to look at some better haunts and graveyards.

Jeremy Herbert presents a spot-on take off the reality TV real estate concept. In KILLER DEAL our host leads a bright-eyed pair of house hunters to a unique fixer-upper on a nice piece of lakefront property. This old house comes with a full complement of horrors, presented in a comedic and still spooky way that makes this one a great short to watch. You’ll find yourself cheering for the overly likable couple to love it, or list it.
With a good use of horror tropes blended perfectly with self-referential humor and the proper balance of fright and fun, you’ll both flip and flop. Remember, a fresh coat of paint covers a multitude of sins.
That is all for this week, folks. We will have a new set of denizens of the dark side to delightfully darken your doorstep. Until that time, watch this one again!
