A new range of comics based on some of Paramount's most famous horror franchises is launching in 2025 from IDW. Smile, A Quiet Place, The Twilight Zone, Event Horizon, and Sleepy Hollow (based on Tim Burton's 1999 movie) are some of the movies and TV shows being transformed into comics from IDW Dark – a brand new imprint specializing in terror tales. The line will also publish brand new series as well as sequels and spinoffs from some of the publisher's most popular original series, including vampire saga 30 Days of Night and this year's breakout cuddly serial killer hit, Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees.
"Horror is everywhere today, in the world and on the shelves," said IDW's group editor Maggie Howell in a statement about the new imprint. "There's an impulse to examine and indulge our deepest fears, and we've seen our industry respond with some of the most exciting new genre initiatives in recent memory. So, what sets IDW Dark apart? Horror is in our blood. This imprint is our way of doubling down on the work IDW has been doing throughout our 25-year history as a premier publisher of horror comics."
