One of Marvel's Biggest Swings on Television Blended Superheroes With Supernatural Horror
Marvel's short-lived series Helstrom paired superheroes with supernatural horror and deserves the cult classic treatment today.
Did you know there was once a Marvel show all about containing demons? While Marvel Studios might be more widely known for superheroes, its overall franchise has consistently been at its best creatively when it plays with other genres, particularly comedy and horror. Before projects like Moon Knight, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Werewolf by Night challenged the definition of what the MCU was capable of, one Marvel television show about two spooky siblings flew right under the supernatural horror radar and, today, deserves cult classic treatment: Helstrom, from creator Paul Zbyszewski.
