Paramount+ Adds Nickelodeon Classics “AAHH!!! Real Monsters” and “Are You Afraid of the Dark?”
Originally part of NickSplat, Nicktoons favorite “AAAHH!!! Real Monsters” and five seasons of the children’s horror anthology series “Are You Afraid of the Dark?“ have both been added to the Paramount+ streaming service.
“A spooky anthology series for kids, “Are You Afraid of the Dark?” recounts ghost stories told by the young members of the Midnight Society as they gather around a campfire.
“Each episode opens with members of the Midnight Society at their secret spot in the woods, where they prepare their fire and the night’s storyteller announces the title of his or her offering. However, the cameras soon leave the storyteller and switch to the tale being told.”
Join the Midnight Society and revisit classic episodes like “The Tale of the Ghastly Grinner” and “The Tale of the Night Shift”.
The four seasons of “AAHH!!! Real Monsters” kicks off when Ickis, Krumm, and Oblina hit the human world on Halloween night with disastrous results. The series follows the “three young monsters who are supposed to learn the art of scaring at the Monster Academy. However, this proves to be no easy task for the three adolescents.”

AMC has announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will debut on streaming.
The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE begins streaming on AMC+ on August 23.
Ahead of its streaming premiere, fans can preview the concert event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, in Hall H at Comic Con International on July 24.
Our own Daniel Kurland attended the special event, highlighting how electric the Immortal Vampire is on stage: “It’s clear in this season of television that Reid was born to be a rock star, but it’s surreal to see him effortlessly command the stage — and the audience — at every step of the concert. He recites Shakespeare monologues and bitches out Armand between songs, all while the audience screams in support. For the duration of this concert, Reid is Lestat, and he’s given thousands of fans a memory that’s as immortal as any vampire.”
Based on Anne Rice‘s The Vampire Chronicles book series, The Vampire Lestat is the rock and roll-centric third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” created by showrunner Rolin Jones.
The Vampire Lestat goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.
Jacob Anderson, Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle star with Reid. Executive producers include Jones, Mark Johnson, Hannah Moscovitch, the late Anne Rice, and her son Christopher Rice.
The series finale airs this Sunday, July 19, on AMC and AMC+.
