Things We Saw Today: The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell is the Goth Baking Show We Always Wanted

By Oct 7th, 2018, 5:47 pm

If you love cooking shows and horror, you’re going to want to tune in to Netflix’s new goth baking show, The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell. The series features baker/model/artist Christine McConnell whipping up a variety of food, baked goods, and crafts based on her love of horror and the macabre. She accompanied by burlesque icon Dita Von Teese, and a handful of Henson Alternative puppets as her co-stars.

If you’re a fan of McConnell’s Instagram, you’re already familiar with her painstakingly crafted desserts and her stunning photography. The series premieres on October 12th, which gives us enough time to practice our terrifying treat baking before Halloween.

Chelsea was born and raised in New Orleans, which explains her affinity for cheesy grits and Britney Spears. She currently lives in sunny Los Angeles, with her husband, son, and one poorly behaved rescue dog. She is a former roller derby girl and a black belt in Judo, so she is not to be trifled with. She loves the word “Jewess” and wishes more people used it to describe her.
