“Expanding our original movie slate with a trilogy of terror required a relatable entry point and what better than tales of fatal attraction, as many of us have experienced relationships that end up feeling more like nightmares,” said D’Angela Proctor, senior vice president of programming and production, TV One in a statement. “The Fright Night Files delivers a perfect cinematic blend of romance, fear and excitement, just in time for Halloween.”
