Making Monsters: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

The Travel Channel is taking a trip to terror land with Making Monsters, their fall series that focuses on the Distortions Unlimited animatronics company in Greeley, Colorado as they create creatures for haunted houses and other fright attractions.

The Travel Channel will air Making Monsters on Sundays from October 2-23 in primetime. The show is a behind-the-scenes look at the Colorado-based Distortions Unlimited, a family-run business that's the largest animatronics creator and producer in the world, pumping out hundreds of creatures year-round to the haunted house, Halloween and scare-amusement industry. Along the way, you'll get to meet Distortions Unlimited owners Ed & Marsha Edmunds, master sculptor Jordu Schell (who has worked on Hellboy, Feast, The Mist, AVPR: Requiem, Legion and the upcoming The Thing and The Cabin in the Woods), sideshow performer the Enigma and Distortions comic book artist Daniel Crosier.
