Freaky is a New Zealand anthology series that was produced by Avalon Productions and funded by NZ on Air. It features episodes about children facing odd phenomena and eerie situations. Usually the protagonist is a boy or girl who starts by trying to do something normal and ordinary, and ends up facing an alien, supernatural or weird force of some kind. This is both a fantasy and science fiction show, with aliens, portals and time travel. Often it has a low level horror aspect as well, as in ghost visitations. It is comparable to a children's version of The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits. It is set in New Zealand in ordinary locations such as houses, malls and schools.
It originally aired on TV2 on Sunday evenings at 5:00pm from 14 September to 14 December 2003[1] and subsequently from early 2004 to mid 2009 on ABC and later on ABC3 in late 2009 to early 2010 in Australia.
Synopsis
Fresh and funky short dramas for children that explore the bizarre, the ridiculous and sometimes frightening ways that everyday life might turn weird - just when it's least expected!
