Calling all fans of spooky vibes and the classic sitcom “The Munsters” – here’s a chilling twist you won’t want to miss!
UCP is developing a horror series titled “1313,” taking inspiration from the beloved Munsters family but with a decidedly darker and more frightening spin. Think less slapstick comedy and more monsters-meet-Monsterverse.
Leading the charge is showrunner Lindsey Anderson Beer, known for her work on “The Last of Us” and “Invasion.” Joining her as executive producers are horror maestro James Wan (“The Conjuring” universe) and Ingrid Bisu.
This isn’t the first time The Munsters have been approached for a modern reboot. In 2017, NBC attempted a comedic reimagining set in Brooklyn, but that project never materialized. There was also a stab at an hour-long drama series by Bryan Fuller in 2012, resulting in the pilot “Mockingbird Lane.” More recently, Rob Zombie directed a big-screen version of The Munsters in 2022.
UCP’s “1313” promises to be a fresh take, injecting horror elements into the familiar world of the Munsters family. Details about the plot and characters are still under wraps, but one thing’s for sure – it will be a departure from the lighthearted sitcom fans might remember.
