A primarily Spanish-language comedy (with English subtitles), the series follows the adventures of Renaldo, a horror and gore enthusiast who forms a unique business that conjures thrills and chills for a variety of clients. Joining Renaldo in his eerie enterprise are friends Úrsula, who handles the logistics and execution of Los Espookys' projects; Úrsula's sister, Tati, who juggles odd jobs while acting as the group's test dummy; and Andrés, the brooding heir to a chocolate empire who longs to unlock the secrets to his past. Recurring guest star Fred Armisen portrays Tico, Renaldo's benign, beloved uncle, who happily lives his own career dream as a parking-valet legend in Los Angeles.

5/5
[It] feels quite unlike anything else on television, and it inhabits its own oddball skin so easily that it takes a moment to realise just how slyly surreal and clever it is. Go to Full Review Troy Patterson The New Yorker 05/09/2020
Exuberant with hot colors and dry absurdities, the show coheres as a kind of magic-realist farce. Go to Full Review Angie Han Mashable 09/03/2019
Los Espookys is sweet but not cavity-inducing, smart but not overwrought. Above all, it's laugh-out-loud funny. There is no punchline too silly or gag too absurd. Go to Full Review Dev Shea Nightmarish Conjurings 09/15/2022
Los Espookys will be a show that you watch on repeat until the new season comes out. I’m not sure I can recommend this show enough for those of you that love horror and all things creepy who also want some belly laughs. Go to Full Review Nathan Mattise Ars Technica 07/29/2021
To state it plainly, this show is definitely good and refreshing... Go to Full Review Cristina Escobar LatinaMedia.Co 06/25/2021
Delightfully odd with absurdist gags ranging from the random... to the insightful. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

M A 12/15/2023 Brilliant and wonderful. See more Allise W 11/17/2022 It's just zany and fun. The main characters are charming and lovable--which is refreshing given other programming. Also, Fred Armisen is great to watch in everything he does. If you want something serious, look elsewhere. If you want a clever, adorable and funny show, this is a good and quick watch. See more andrei d 11/15/2022 Has something, needs more weird See more 01/30/2021 Portlandia as telenovela, a charismatic cast with great comedy timing influenced by sideline ringleader Fred Armisen`s deadpan zaniness. Irresistible. See more 11/25/2019 Quirky without being annoying, the innocent joy of the characters and the sense that they would actually all hang out together in real life is massively appealing. The surreal touches that come and go just make it even more fun. See more 09/27/2019 The concept was intriguing but ends up being just boring. It is very clear you cannot trust the critic tomatometer score anymore. See more Read all reviews
