‘Wellington Paranormal’ is the horror comedy that genre fans have been waiting for and it’s far more than a silly ‘What We Do in the Shadows’ spin-off. Television has become a haven for cutting edge horror content and there are greater risks being taken with programs that gleefully deconstruct the genre or combine it together with other extremes, as if it’s some Frankenstein’s monster.
