Here’s some news that warms my heart. As a huge fan of the old Tales from the Crypt comic book, we can now confirm that M. Night Shyamalan will be revisiting some classic creepy tales ripped from its pages for the upcoming rebooted TV series.
The news comes during an interview with Crave Online:
Crave: So you’re not just going to do your own thing?
M. Night Shyamalan: No, no, no.
C: You’re going back to the original stories?
MNS: These are the comics, yeah.
C: What’s your favorite one from the comics that hasn’t been done yet?
MNS: [Thinks.] There’s a bunch. I have a folder of my favorites, like my twenty or thirty favorites. I’m trying to remember them. I mean, they’re so weird. There’s one where there’s a bewitching one, where an old lady bewitches and takes the wife, and the husband has to figure it out. He keeps the old lady in the closet, but that’s really his wife now. They’ve swapped, you know? And he can’t kill this woman, but she’s now a beautiful woman.

“Tales From the Crypt” is still about a year away, as it will be premiere in the fourth quarter of 2017. That’s plenty of time for Shyamalan to get cooking and pick the best of the beasts!
