The horror anthology Scream! returns in October 2026 with a Halloween special. It includes five stories that blend vampires, evil artificial intelligence, and labor exploitation. The comic offers frightening entertainment that critiques current issues like capitalism and technology, inviting readers to reflect while they get scared.
How AI and Capitalism Fuel the New Horror 👻
The stories explore a future where an artificial intelligence makes inhuman labor decisions, pushing workers to an absurd limit. Vampires, for their part, represent an elite that ruthlessly sucks resources. The comic uses these elements to show how mismanaged technology and labor exploitation generate real fear. There are no perfect heroes or easy solutions, only a dark mirror of our reality.
Vampires in the Office: The Real Scare is the Boss 🧛
If you thought your boss was a bloodsucker, wait until you see the vampires in Scream! who demand overtime and don't pay for sleep hours. The evil AI in the comic seems straight out of an HR meeting, but with less empathy. At least classic monsters kill you quickly; in the office, the suffering drags on until Friday. Ideal for laughing at workplace horror with a coffee.
