Nickelodeon's Loud House is getting a "spooky" horror special

Popverse's top stories of the day

• Hannibal wouldn't be a fan of Chicago's local food scene, according to Mads Mikkelsen (but, then again, he's a cannibal)
• Watch: Artist's Alley Asks: Superman or Fantastic Four? Gene Ha, Cully Hamner, Jarrett Melendez, Rachael Stott, Soo Lee, and Tim Seeley weigh in on their cinematic preference
• Brandon Sanderson tried (very hard) to change one character arc on the Wheel of Time show

Who says haunted houses have to be quiet?

They certainly won't be in the case of the Loud family, stars of the Nickelodeon animated series Loud House. Typically theirs is a house full of laughter, but this summer, expect screams as The Loud House Spooky Special comes to cbook stores and comic stores everywhere.

This won't be the first time that publisher Papercutz (recently acquired by Mad Cave Studios) will be putting out a Loud House comic, however, it is the first time they're delving into the supernatural, or at least, spooky side of the Loud House world. In a press release, the publisher promised "scares, thrills, chills and brouhaha to tickle all funny bones in this scary good celebration of all things spooky."

So just what can fans of the show expect from the book? Well, horror comic readers won't be suprised to learn that it's an anthology comic and regular viewers of the show won't be too shocked that it's Loud House's resident macabrist Lucy Loud leading the show. Papercitz teases an adventure in a haunted maze, a legendary Candy Goblin, and somthing called "The Nightmare on Franklin Street."

Sources do not specify whether Freddy Krueger will be appearing.

The Loud House Spooky Special is created and written by "the Loud House creative team" according to the publisher, without specifying who exactly.
