[Images] The Finale of Food Network’s “Haunted Gingerbread Showdown” Paid Tribute to 35 Years of Freddy
This past Sunday night, Food Network celebrated the 35th anniversary of A Nightmare on Elm Street with the season two finale of the baking competition series “Haunted Gingerbread Showdown,” giving the final three contestants one week to create the ultimate tribute to Freddy Krueger and the franchise’s nightmares – out of gingerbread, of course.
The big stipulation? Each gingerbread sculpture had to incorporate real flames!
If you missed “Scares on Elm Street,” you can check out some images of the contestants’ creations below. The winner took home $25,000, but we won’t spoil that for ya!
You can also watch the full episode through Food Network’s website.
In the wake of his third movie Nope back in 2022, Jordan Peele is producing something of a spiritual follow-up to the sci-fi/horror movie with an upcoming docuseries for Peacock.
Deadline reports this afternoon that the docuseries project from Peacock and Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions aims to “dismantle the whitewashed mythology of the cowboy.”
The site details in today’s exclusive report, “The series is inspired by themes from his movie Nope, which starred Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer as horse-wrangling siblings attempting to capture evidence of a UFO in Agua Dulce, California.”
Additionally, “The docuseries will rewrite a foundational piece of American history, unmasking the forces that erased the identity of the Black cowboy from frontier history and present.”
Keith McQuirter (By Whatever Means Necessary: The Godfather of Harlem) is the showrunner, director and executive producer of the docuseries, which doesn’t yet have a title.
“Nope gave a nod to the deep history of Black cowboys in America, and this docuseries offers a full exploration of their lives and contributions to today’s cultural landscape,” said Pearlena Igbokwe, Chairman, Universal Studio Group. “Told through the singular lens of Jordan Peele, this series is every bit as entertaining as it is enriching.
“It’s been a thrill for UTAS to collaborate with Jordan, Monkeypaw, Keith and the team on what is a truly special project, and we’re excited to share it with fans.”
