‘The Creep Tapes’ Season 2: Shudder’s Most Watched Show Returns With More Horror!

Fans of the chilling series Peachfuzz can rejoice now, since The Creep Tapes has been officially renewed for a second season by Shudder, set to premiere in November 2024. The original series provided fans with an intriguing exploration into the twisted psyche of the infamous serial killer, first introduced by creators Patrick Brice and Mark Duplass following their successful 2014 film Creep, as well as its 2017 sequel.

By the set deadline, streaming platform Shudder has announced the revival of their found footage series for a second season. This new installment will again be spearheaded by Brice and Duplass. Although it hasn’t garnered significant attention in mainstream circles, The Creep Tapes was a blockbuster hit within the horror enthusiast community. It broke records as the most-watched Shudder series on AMC+ upon its debut and set a new benchmark for Shudder’s strongest November release, whether it be a movie or TV show. Duplass commented to Deadline about the first season, saying, “We made The Creep Tapes independently, allowing us to fully express our creative freedom.

It’s quite something that Shudder not only requested more from us but urged us to push boundaries this time. Frankly, it’s both unnerving and thrilling in equal measure.

Brice expressed great joy about the prospect of offering new chilling episodes for The Creep Tapes’ second season. Finding such a passionate fanbase on Shudder is like a dream come true. Despite the craziness of this franchise, it’s accurate to call it a ‘labor of love’. We can hardly wait to delve in again!
