Crazyhead press pack

Category: News Release

Crazyhead is a brand new comedy horror series about love, friendship and facing your demons. Created and written by BAFTA-winning Misfit’s creator Howard Overman, the six-part series follows the angst and exorcisms of an unlikely duo of demon hunters, Amy (Cara Theobold) and Raquel (Susan Wokoma).

When people die most go quietly into the night. But some have unfinished business: scores to settle, blood to spill, axes to plant in people's heads...These tormented souls work through their issues by possessing the living. Most of the time they walk freely amongst us, unseen by all but a special few.

Amy (Cara Theobold) is one of those few. She works in a bowling alley and never really imagined herself battling the legions of hell. It can play havoc with a girl's love life. Not to mention her mind. Thankfully Amy isn't alone. Enter Raquel (Susan Wokoma). Armed with Wikipedia and a baton she bought on e-bay, Raquel's a self-made demon hunter with a whole lot of baggage and an impressive lack of social skills.

An unlikely friendship is born as Amy and Raquel attempt to navigate their way through the choppy waters of their early twenties whilst simultaneously kicking the ass of some seriously gnarly demons. What could possibly go wrong?

Produced by Urban Myth Films for Channel 4 in association with Netflix. Crazyhead will be broadcast in the UK exclusively on E4, with Netflix streaming the series globally following E4’s UK premiere.
