Mega-hit Supernatural, now going into its sixth season, has spawned its first spinoff: Ghostfacers is headed directly to the Web and will air on both the TheWB and CW sites, premiering on the former. The three-minute episodes are being produced by Wonderland. Ten episodes are planned, with more sure to follow if the webisodes prove anywhere near as popular as the TV show which spawned them, which was recently greenlighted for a sixth season. Production is already underway.
The Ghostfacers are a team of ghost-hunters who document their escapades. The comedic team debuted in the first season of Supernatural and returned in a full episode in the third season. They proved quite popular with viewers, though they do not get along well with the Winchesters - in fact, they spawned their own convention in London!
The websiodes will be complemented by gag-reels, behind-the-scenes interviews and footage, and more. The series is being co-written by the stars, A.J. Buckley and Travis Wester, and produced by McG, Eric Kripke, and Phil Sgriccia of Supernatural.
