Tubi announced this afternoon that Bite Size Terror, a new short-form anthology series joining the Terror on Tubi hub, is set to arrive this Halloween season.
The ten-episode anthology series will introduce a new generation of filmmakers and is scheduled to premiere exclusively on Tubi this Fall in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
From executive producer Peter Rice and GJMD Studio, the series brings a fresh take on the short-form horror format to Tubi that was previously explored in Hulu’s “Bite Size Halloween.”
Each episode will feature a new story, ranging from occult to body horror, dark comedy, monsters, and the macabre.
“Our horror shorts have become an extraordinary engine for discovering new writer-directors, 90 shorts, nine first features, and counting,” said Executive Producer Peter Rice. “We’re thrilled to partner with Tubi to introduce the next generation of horror filmmakers, with BITE SIZE TERROR on Tubi.”
“With a different nightmare in every episode, BITE SIZE TERROR is a thrilling showcase for the next generation of horror filmmakers,” said Adam Lewinson, Chief Content Officer at Tubi. “It brings bold, unpredictable stories to the Terror on Tubi Hub, adding to an already compelling destination for fans with more than 53 million hours of horror to explore. We’re proud to partner with Peter, David, and GJMD to bring these distinctive new voices directly to our growing audience.”
