Dead End: Paranormal Park[3] is an American animated fantasy horror comedy television series created by British author Hamish Steele for Netflix, which is based on the graphic novels series DeadEndia by Steele and Cartoon Hangover's Too Cool! Cartoons web short Dead End.[4][5][6] Produced by Blink Industries, the series premiered on June 16, 2022.[7] A second and final season premiered on October 13, 2022.[8] On January 13, 2023, Steele announced that the series had been canceled.[9]

Premise

[edit]

The series follows Barney and Norma, the newest employees at their local theme park, Phoenix Parks, a Dollywood-esque park created by the famous celebrity Pauline Phoenix.[10][11] Joined by Pugsley, Barney's childhood dog, and Courtney, a thousand-year-old demon, they discover the world of the Paranormal as well as learning new things about themselves.[12]

Plot

[edit]

Barney Guttman is the main protagonist of the series. He is a gay transgender teen boy who finds a new job as a security guard of Phoenix Parks. Barney has family problems. His grandmother doesn't accept the fact that he is trans. While it hasn't been made clear what his grandmother said to him, it was shown to be very hurtful. Barney's parents accept him for who he is, but do nothing when his grandmother begins verbally abusing him. Shortly after starting at his new job, Barney secretly moves in the Haunted House attraction with his dog, Pugsley. On the same day, Norma Khan is also starting her new job at Phoenix Parks as part of the security team. Norma is a 17-year-old autistic Pakistani-American girl who is obsessed with all things Pauline Phoenix. Norma is very socially anxious, dreading social interaction, and has been shown to have panic attacks when overwhelmed.

After walking to the haunted house and entering, they meet Courtney, a demon who disguises herself as part of the attraction. Courtney is taking orders from Temeluchus, a member of the demon royal family. Temeluchus needs a vessel to interact with the world and tasks Courtney to bring them Barney. After Barney's dog Pugsley realizes this, he jumps in front of Barney and ends up getting possessed instead of Barney. He flies to an attraction in Camelot Creek to claim a throne.

Barney's scared that Pugsley might get hurt, so he walks to the attraction. Norma follows him after doubting a bit. Norma gets an idea from an old Pauline Phoenix film where a demon soul is captured by taking a photograph. When they both arrive at Camelot Creek, Norma turns on the attraction and Barney hops in a boat for Temeluchus/Pugsley to follow, tempting the demon with his body as a vessel instead of his dogs. The plan works fine initially, but then Temeluchus realizes the duo's plan and turns the camera away from him using magic. Norma, struggling at first, succeeds in turning the camera back just in time. They capture the soul of Temeluchus in the photograph and head back to the haunted house.

When they get to the haunted house, Barney and Norma give the photograph to Courtney, who is sad because Temeluchus promised to return her to her home, but happy not to be taking any more orders. Courtney realizes that part of Temeluchus is missing from the photo. Pugsley still has a bit of Temeluchus inside him, and because of this he has gained the ability to talk, use magic and easily walk on two legs.

There are more secrets and mysteries at Phoenix Parks, will our new friends survive what they are in store for?

Cast and characters

[edit]

Production, development, and release

[edit]

On 17 August 2020, Steele explained how the show changed from its original iteration on Cartoon Hangover in 2014, and the graphic novels that followed it,[21] stating that he is grateful for showrunners who fought for LGBTQ characters in their shows, adding that there was "absolutely no pushback from Netflix about representation", while describing Barney as a trans male character.[22] He also hoped that the show will help out "more trans creators getting their chance to tell their stories" while hinting at other LGBTQ characters in the show apart from Barney. In another interview, he was thankful to Netflix executives for letting them have diversity in the show while pushing for it, and pushing him to "tell the story I want to tell".[23] He stated that all the scripts were reviewed by GLAAD and said he couldn't wait for people to know Barney. Jen Rudin was a casting executive for the show.[24] Julian Guidetti is the show's composer, and features original songs written by Patrick Stump.[25] In January 2023, he revealed that the series was pitched to Netflix in 2019, and that the series wasn't a "word-for-word adaptation" of the comics he had written.[26]

The series was scheduled to premiere in 2021.[27][3] The series was originally scheduled for a Fall 2021 premiere on Netflix.[28][29]

In August 2021, Steele noted the importance of trans representation in the series, hoped it took a stance against transphobia in the UK, and noted there are "multiple trans cast and crew".[30] On 23 October 2021, Netflix reserved a trademark with the new name for the series: "Dead End: Paranormal Park".[31]

On 19 May 2022, the show's trailer premiered and confirmed the show would premiere on 16 June 2022. Mey Rude of Out stated that the trailer gives a "great look at the show" and said that the show features queer and trans characters, addressing these identities "through important storylines".[32] The first season premiered June 16, 2022.[7]

In July 2022, after the show's release, Steele argued that the series was a young adult animation like Infinity Train and hoped for the expansion of the genre in the future.[33] On 6 September 2022, a second season was confirmed to be released on October 13.[34] The second season premiered on October 13.[34] On 13 January 2023, Steele announced that Netflix has cancelled the series.[9]

On 17 January 2023, Steele wrote a guest column in Gizmodo, saying that the cancellation meant that "the story cannot conclude on screen" and added that "politics of TV production" means that creators are "never guaranteed to end things on your terms", differentiating it from writing webcomics and graphic novels.[26]

Barney and Norma arrive at Phoenix Parks, an amusement park themed around film starlet Pauline Phoenix, to compete for a job at the park's haunted house. They soon find that the house is overrun by a group of demons led by Courtney, who explains they have actually been summoned to provide a human host for their king Temeluchus, in the hopes that he can return them to their world. Temeluchus attempts to possess Barney, but his dog Pugsley (who Barney had brought along with him) jumps in front of him and ends up being the host. Barney and Norma work together and take a picture of Pugsley, extracting Temeluchus from Pugsley and trapping him in a photograph. They give the photograph to Courtney and she offers both of them jobs as security guards for the park. Barney decides to stay the night in the haunted house. Courtney notices a part of Temeluchus's soul missing from the photograph, and Barney is surprised that Pugsley can speak now.

A new train arrives and a living mascot costume escapes from it and grabs an employee. Barney and Norma hide and look for Pugsley in the underground tunnels of the park. They find Pugsley leading more living mascot costumes to trains; before Pugsley can explain, they argue. The released mascots cause chaos to the guests in the park, until Norma realizes that the mascots aren't evil but are trying to fulfill their roles as mascots by meeting with guests. Barney apologizes to Pugsley and they lead a mascot parade before returning them underground. Norma asks Barney why he is sleeping over in the park, to which he explains that he is transgender and the park gives him an opportunity to make a fresh start. Courtney deduces that the part of Temeluchus's soul missing from the photograph is in Pugsley.

In a final exercise, Harmony instructs everyone to touch a skull, trapping them in the world with their greatest fear. Barney and Norma touch the skull together and she breaks Barney out of his fear world (a dinner with his parents and a monstrous version of his grandmother), doing the same for Pugsley and Courtney. Harmony reveals that he is actually a demon called Harm Many that feeds on people's fears. As Norma had not been to her fear world yet, she challenges Harm Many that if she enters her fear world, he must free the others. Her fear world is revealed to be an intense recreation of her social anxiety, and her friends help break her out. Her fears are so great they end up killing Harm Many.

Barney convinces her that running away from her problems doesn't work as he had tried to do the same. They find the insurance ad; it shows Pauline accidentally dying on the shoot and then possessing Barbora, passing Barbora off as herself. They deduce that Pauline had been possessing a new impersonator when she finished with an old one in order to stay young forever, explaining the "disappearances" of the old impersonators.

Reception

[edit]

The series was received positively. David Opie of Digital Spy argued that the series satiates the "endless need for adorable queer animation" and noting other animated series with queer-inclusive stories.[35] Abbey White of The Hollywood Reporter said the series isn't "typical" for animated series, noted the "racially-, gender- and sexuality-diverse cast" and argued the series smashes genres and is "equal parts comedy, horror and coming of age."[36] Ben Mitchell, the editor-in-chief of Skwigly called the series a "horror comedy...for younger audiences" and praised the well-developed characters and "incredible attention to detail" in production design.[37] Reuben Baron of Paste called the series "groundbreaking" and argued that U.S. senators Roger Marshall, Mike Lee, Mike Braun, Steve Daines, and Kevin Cramer demanded new content warnings because the series centers on a trans protagonist. Baron criticized the series for not capturing the "visual charm" of the DeadEndia comic and saying the series "tones down" some themes from the comic while praising the writing and treatment of autism in the series.[38]

Jade King of The Gamer argued that the series is "delightfully queer" and said it comes together in a "warm, comforting, and spooky animated adventure". She also praised the show's character development and said the show shouldn't be overlooked.[39] Charles Pulliam-Moore of The Verge called the series a "shining example" of what queer creators can do "when given the resources and freedom to tell their own stories", said its existence is evident in the impact of "other recent progressively minded cartoons" on modern animation and hoped that Netflix renewed the series.[40] Kristy Puchko of Mashable called it a "kinetic and heartwarming adventure cartoon" which delivers on LGBTQ representation and is true to the source material.[41] Barry Levitt of The Daily Beast called the series a "incredibly fun journey" with bright and inviting "colors and charming character designs filling every frame" and said it is a "miracle" the series is coming out, with rising transphobic rhetoric.[42]
