Little Dot Studios, the All3Media-owned media and production company, has joined forces with global producer and distributor BIG Media to launch a dedicated FAST Channel for the iconic paranormal investigation series Most Haunted.
The new single-IP channel, which goes live this month across major platforms in multiple territories, will feature 175 hours of programming from the long-running franchise, including Most Haunted and Most Haunted Unseen. The launch is part of a broader, multi-year partnership between the two companies to revitalise and expand the brand’s global digital footprint – in time for this year’s Halloween season.
Under the agreement, Little Dot Studios will manage the Most Haunted FAST Channel and take over operation of the brand’s official YouTube channel. The company will also distribute selected content through its owned and operated network, Little Dot Channels, beginning with its Absolute Sci-Fi brand.
Karl Beattie, the show’s creator and IP owner, will collaborate closely with both partners to align digital programming with Most Haunted’s live events and merchandising activities, further strengthening the franchise’s presence across platforms.
“Most Haunted is one of the most iconic paranormal franchises in television history, with a devoted global fanbase. Partnering with Little Dot Studios allows us to extend the brand into the FAST landscape, expand its YouTube community, and deliver new opportunities for audiences to experience the series,” said Emma Sparks, SVP of Europe at BIG Media.
Connie Hodson, Director of Content Acquisitions & Partnerships at Little Dot Studios, added: “Most Haunted is a cult classic with an incredibly loyal following, making it the perfect choice for a dedicated FAST Channel. This partnership with BIG Media shows how we can connect FAST, AVOD and social strategies to fuel long-term franchise growth.”
The Most Haunted FAST Channel becomes the latest addition to Little Dot Studios’ expanding FAST portfolio, now comprising seven dedicated brands streaming across more than 120 channels worldwide. Its digital network, Little Dot Channels, ranks as the UK’s second-largest streamer by catalogue size, hosting over 135 actively managed digital channels and reaching 125 million viewers monthly, according to the company.
