Horror comedy on television dates back to classic sitcoms like The Munsters and The Addams Family and has since expanded to include a variety of styles. Notable examples range from the gory slapstick of Ash vs Evil Dead and Stan Against Evil to mockumentaries like the What We Do in the Shadows franchise and Wellington Paranormal. Other comedic horror series include Todd and the Book of Pure Evil, Shining Vale, and Santa Clarita Diet, while animated entries feature Beetlejuice, Invader Zim, School for Vampires, Scooby-Doo, and Courage the Cowardly Dog. More recent additions to the genre include The Ghost and Molly McGee, Wednesday, Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, Gravity Falls, Hazbin Hotel, Helluva Boss, and Bunsen Is a Beast.
