The point-and-click adventure game based on the horror anthology series is coming this August.
The Creepshow game isn’t dead after all. Although things have been quiet around the video game spinoff of Shudder’s horror anthology series since its announcement a few years ago, the Steam page has just gone live with a surprisingly close release window: August 2026. Horror show is a point-and-click adventure that “gone wrong,” according to developer PHL Collective. It is published by THE Mortuary assistant publisher, DreadXP.
In Horror show the game, “Follow Danny and his friends as a bad day at the mall turns into something much darker. Their search for the truth behind Danny’s father leads them to The Reader, a mysterious fortune teller with a taste for treacherous stories.”
Going back to the original anthology films from the 1980s, Horror show has always mixed horror with a touch of humor, and the description indicates that the video game will stay in this tone. It features “pulp-inspired visuals, dark humor, comic book environments, horror mini-games, and endings you won’t see coming.” There’s no information on console versions, so for now it looks like this will only be released on PC.
