What’s Kristin Stewart’s role in Living for the Dead?

Kirstin Stewart is Executive Producer. She was reported in People Magazine recently saying:

It’s so cool and enlivening that me and my best friend CJ Romero had this funny idea and now it’s a show. It started as a bit of a hypothetical silly pipe dream and now I am so proud to have shepherded something that is as moving and meaningful as it is truly a gay old time.

This is just the beginning for us and for Living For The Dead. We wanna one day have traipsed across the entire spooky ass country. Maybe the world!

It’s all fun and games till someone gets possessed.’
