Damn You, Uncle Lewis #1 - THE INHERITANCE

Damn You, Uncle Lewis #1 - THE INHERITANCE

Author: Patrick K. Walsh February 13, 2026 Duration: 1:12:15

Welcome to the premiere episode of Damn You, Uncle Lewis where we dive deep into the world of the campy '80s Canadian television show that made antique shopping terrifying: FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE SERIES!

Step into the creepy basement of My Very Curious Curio show for the monthly meeting of the "We Hate Uncle Lewis Club" as we explore the pilot episode of Friday the 13th: The Series, "The Inheritance" starring future Academy Award winner SARAH POLLEY and her killer antique dolly, Vida. (Currently available on YouTube)

In "The Inheritance", estranged cousins Ryan & Micky inherit an antique store from their late Uncle Lewis. When they discover Lewis was in league with the devil and selling cursed antiques to unsuspecting clients, they make a pact to stop the evil from spreading by getting everything he sold back.

First up, a porcelain doll owned by a little girl whose family members keep turning up dead.

You can expect:

  1. Giant hair
  2. Crazy fashions
  3. Ghost radios
  4. Drag queen eyebrows
  5. Geographically untraceable accents.
  6. Snarky commentary from your hosts, Patrick, Trae and Maya.
