Freaky is a New Zealand children's program made from 2003 by Avalon Productions. It features short episodes (about ten minutes) about odd phenomena and situations facing children. Usually the protagonist is a boy or girl who starts by trying to do something normal and ordinary, ending up facing an alien, supernatural or weird force of some kind. This is both a fantasy and science fiction show, with aliens, portals and time travel. Often it has a low level horror aspect as well, as in ghost visitations.
It is set in New Zealand in ordinary locations such as houses, malls and schools. The cast is from New Zealand and speak with the accent from the nation, using terms in that nations slang.
It is currently being shown on ABC Rollercoaster at 5.50 on ABC television in Australia.
