There’s a new show coming our way from the makers of Queer Eye and Kristen Stewart (Twilight, Charlies’ Angels) called Living for the Dead, and as the newly released trailer makes clear, it centers around five queer “Ghost Hunties” who not only investigate paranormal activity, but also help the normies they meet along the way.
Just in time for Huluween, the series features the group—Alex Le May, Juju Bae, Ken Boggle, Logan Taylor, Roz Hernandez—going to haunted locations, one of which appears to be a hotel full of clowns and unfortunate floral bedspreads. They also, as the trailer reveals, attempt a “gay-ance” with spooky results.
Here’s the show’s synopsis:
From the creators of Queer Eye, five fabulous, queer ghost hunters criss-cross the country, helping the living by healing the dead. As they explore some of the world’s most infamous haunted locations, they’ll shed light on those not seen and illuminate untold stories. Together they’ll push past boundaries to bring acceptance to the misunderstood – living and dead. This is Living For The Dead, Ghost Hunties!
“It’s so cool and enlivening that me and my best friend CJ Romero had this funny idea and now it’s a show,” said Kristen Stewart, who is the Living for the Dead‘s narrator and executive producer. “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!”
We can see what supernatural antics the Ghost Hunties get up to when Living for the Dead premieres on Hulu on October 18, 2023.
