The surprising connection between Parks and Rec and Widow’s Bay
Published 2 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
Katie Dippold created a new TV series that puts a comedic spin on classic horror tropes. Widow’s Bay is about a small island town off the coast of New England whose mayor is desperately trying to turn it into a tourist destination — despite the locals’ belief that the island is cursed. Katie mainly comes from a comedy background, having written the Ghostbusters remake and The Heat, as well as for Parks and Recreation. She joins Tom Power to talk about how she’s always been a fan of horror and why her comedy roots helped her write a scary show.
