Summary
Katie Dippold, creator of Apple TV+'s horror comedy 'Widow's Bay', reveals the series originated as a spec script for an episode of 'Parks and Recreation' where she was a writer and co-producer. The original version was much more comedic and jokier, but Dippold isn't sure she 'would have watched' that version. The show has since evolved into a full horror comedy series on Apple TV+.
