Baker and artist Christine McConnell creates sweet treats and other crafts in this series, but her creations may not be appropriate for children. In each episode, she welcomes viewers into her home as she -- with the help of her colorful collection of creatures -- bakes, sculpts and sews delectable confections and decor. McConnell's creations all have Halloween or horror themes. Given that, McConnell describes her show as "a weird mish-mash of `The Addams Family' and a Martha Stewart how-to show."

Resembling Snow White with her raven hair and pale skin, McConnell issues instructions like Martha Stweart -- clipped and authoritarian -- never cracking a smile at the absurdity of it all. Go to Full Review
Helen Rosner The New Yorker 10/24/2018
Beautiful, morbid, bizarre, and raunchy. Go to Full Review

[A] delightfully bonkers cooking-and-crafts series. Go to Full Review

This show is gorgeous in its design (I WILL have her cabinets one day), sweet in more ways than one, hilarious and filled to the brim with snarky dialogue and sarcasm and is just creepy enough to keep my spooky heart in love. Go to Full Review
Fausto Ponce Alta Fidelidad Magazine 04/27/2021

Jay C @RT84179664 10/03/2024 You have to get past the first episode, which had no comedic punch. But if you stick it out, you'll learn that it's very funny and of course very cute. See more 09/02/2021 Loved it! Really got me into the spooky season mood and made me want to get creative, would 100% recommend has some very likeable characters to! See more 02/02/2021 The best cooking show you'll ever see. See more karen r @karenee 07/03/2020 I couldn't get past the first minute. The animatronic animals look like they were dug out of the trash from 1982. so poorly done and ridiculous. maybe that's part of the charm but i got dumb chills. Her acting was horrible as well. See more 04/12/2020 A fantastic show of dark humour and delightful dialogue. The reason I like this show so much is not because of Christine's creations, but because of the puppets and the plots of each episode. Rose and Rankle, two of the best television characters of 2018. See more 04/08/2020 Bats**t, but not in a good way. This show is waayy overtly silly, inane, pointless. It comes off as if it's made for kids or something, but it really isn't. What demographic is this for. shut-ins, methadone patients and crazy cat ladies? See more Read all reviews
