October is full of frights. And, if you’re looking for something new that’ll keep you up ALL night, check out AwesomenessTV’s Freakish—exclusively on Hulu. The binge-worthy show is scary good. And, all ten episodes are available now.

Freakish follows a group of students who are trapped at their small town high school after a meltdown happens at their local chemical plant. They must band together and fight for survival as mutant freaks begin to take over. Yikes!

It’s The Breakfast Club meets The Walking Dead. So, it’s kind of amazing. And, it’s led by an all-star cast that includes:

• Leo Howard (Kicking It, Shake It Up)
• Liza Koshy (Boo! A Madea Halloween)
• Adam Hicks (Zeke and Luther, Pair of Kings)
• Aislinn Paul (Degrassi)
• Tyler Chase (The Walking Dead)
• Meghan Rienks (Mr. Student Body President, Oscar’s Hotel)
• Melvin Gregg (The Land, Class)
• Hayes Grier (Dancing with the Stars)
• Chad L. Coleman (The Walking Dead)
• Mary Mouser (Scandal, Body of Proof)
• Chachi Gonzales (East Los High)

Talk about a stellar cast. Amirite? There’s not one weak performance in the bunch. You quickly find yourself rooting for their characters even though they’re flawed and full of angst. It’s clear from the start that no one is safe. No one! It not only helps build the show’s suspense but it keeps things from going stale. And, there are moments where you might find yourself jumping out of your seat. I did!
