Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger) and Kane Hodder (Jason Vorhees) of slasher (and chopper and stabber) film fame will be teamed in a new series of Webisodes from video on-demand service FearNet.

Fear Clinic launches in October around its annual Halloween Scare-a-thon.

The series features Englund as a maniacal doctor who tries to cure people of their worst fears by subjecting them to them. Joining Englund on-screen will be Vorhees, as well as Danielle Harris from Rob Zombie's Halloween.

Special and undoubedly squeamish effects will come from Robert Hall's Almost Human (Buffy, The Vampire Slayer). Hall is also directing the series

FearNet VOD is available on systems owned by Comcast, Cox, Verizon FiOS, AT&T, Bresnan, and Insight.
