The Boulet Brothers’ previous project and hit competition series, “The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Titans” has become Shudder’s most-watched series.

Dastmalchian serves as co-producer in association with his production company, Good Fiend Films. “Halfway to Halloween” airs on AMC+ and Shudder on April 25.
