About Tales from the Crypt
Tales from the Crypt ran 93 episodes across seven seasons from June 10, 1989 to July 19, 1996 on HBO with the Crypt Keeper hosting EC Comics twists. Demon Knight arrived January 1995 theatrically with Brayker's blood key chase. Bordello of Blood arrived August 1996 with vampire madam Lilith leading to the Keeper's origin tease.
Ritual from 2002 continues the brand loosely and sits as an optional extra. No new HBO season has been made. The series plus two films form the core run with Ritual outside. Each episode stands alone with new casts throughout.
Good to know
Broadcast order is enough inside the series, since episodes reset each week. Watch all seven seasons before the films, since Demon Knight assumes you know the Keeper tone. Bordello spoils no series plot but plays better with that tone fresh. Ritual shares only branding and can be skipped. With HBO closed in 1996, this is a finished anthology.
