What happens
Freaky Stories is a Canadian animated anthology television series originally broadcast by YTV in English and Canal Famille in French (five-minute versions using the French title Frissons). It is an animated show about urban legends hosted by two animatronic puppets, Larry de Bug (voiced by James Rankin), a cockroach, and his gooey sidekick, Maurice (voiced by Dan Redican) the maggot in Ted's Diner - a 1940s-era diner setting staffed by Rosie the waitress (voiced by Jayne Eastwood, but never seen - season 1 only).
