Hulu's ongoing anthology horror series, 'Into the Dark,' might have made a particular festival from each month the premise of its monthly episodic releases, but what has also been a game changer for the show, are its elements of horror.

From popular kids' toy ('Pooka') to a potentially murderous father ('Flesh and Blood') - these elements of horror on the show have been equal parts unique and diverse. Along the same lines is its upcoming April Fool's day based episode 'I'm Just F*cking With You', where the element of horror is an inherent prankster who gets a kick out of screwing with random people.

Called Chester, the character played by comic genius Hayes MacArthur, works as a bartender at a shady motel in California. Enter Larry (Keir O'Donnell) - a typically self-proclaimed online troll - who again, gets a kicker out of being mean to people on the internet under an anonymous username. As fate would have it, their paths intertwine, and thus begins an entertaining journey of watching a real-life troll, trolling an online troll, as their not so pleasant encounter culminates in a horrifying outcome.
