Hulu has dropped the official Living for the Dead trailer for its newest reality series, centering around five queer ghost hunters as they investigate haunted places across America in style. Set to premiere on October 18, the docuseries hails from Oscar nominee Kristen Stewart, who is serving as the narrator and executive producer.
“It’s so cool and enlivening that me and my best friend CJ Romero had this funny idea and now it’s a show,” Stewart said in a statement. “It started as a bit of a hypothetical silly pipe dream and now I am so proud to have shepherded something that is as moving and meaningful as it is truly a gay old time. Our cast makes me laugh and cry and they had the courage and heart to take us places I wouldn’t go by myself. And it’s a super cool maiden voyage for the company I’ve started with my partners Dylan Meyer and Maggie McLean. This is just the beginning for us and for ‘Living for the Dead.’ We wanna one day have traipsed across the entire spooky ass country. Maybe the world!”
The video introduces the show’s fabulous ghost-hunting team, who each have an important part during investigations. It also teases the haunted locations they’ll be visiting including: The Clown Motel in Tonopah, Nevada; Copper Queen Hotel in Bisbee, Arizona; the infamous Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville, Kentucky; Palace Theatre in Louisville, Kentucky; and The Palomino in Las Vegas Nevada.
