From a YouTube short series to a Screambox talk show
Years ago, Raimi created a YouTube short series called Deathly Spirits, in which he made a drink and told a scary story. After he took Deathly Spirits off the air, fans asked for more episodes.
About a month after he considered making a horror insider podcast, Screambox approached him with the idea of a talk show similar to Dinner for Five.
