“Puff & Pie” is an animated comedy horror short series about a serial killer trio who constantly finds themselves in the most chaotic situations you can ever imagine and mind you, these are serial killers, so they have different perceptions of crazy. One day they focus on their own serial killer work, the next day there’s the most obvious crossover between these characters and the entire franchise of Friday the 13th. Expect the unexpected.
The evil trio...
Every episode follows with the main characters: Cream Puff, Pie and Apollo.
Cream Puff is what you call a tad stabby gal, she can be impatient and impulsive, things don’t go her way? Her solution is not peace, therapy or “talking things out”, she goes straight for that knife. Yet, ironically, she is more grounded than her twin brother Pie. Voiced by Sky Artaggat
Pie is that dude that everyone claims they like because of his personality, but we all know it’s that face card and the way he can make you feel “special” and important. But hey! At least he makes a living off of it! He is a breadwinner, fools rich men or in general not so good people with his charm and once trust is earned, he goes for the kill and gets his bag as a hitman. Voiced by Corey Wilder
Apollo is genuinely the only character in the whole series who is not that crazy, he is the one who handles hitman work and works with Pie. But let’s not ignore the elephant in the room, this guy has his own issues at best. Why else is he living in a house full of serial killers and getting paid for literal murder. Apollo is composed, but not always when you are dating Pie, whose literal job is to flirt with other men. Bro is NOT handling it well, I promise. Voiced by StudVA
woah animation is...expensive
What’s the production timeline?
We plan on producing the 24 episodes (1 season) with each episode lasting 20-40 seconds/under 1 minute as soon as the campaign gets funded on Backerkit. These are animated shorts, so it allows us to go into production quite fast, the ideal timeline is that we get into deep production as soon as the start of May of 2026, due to animation being time consuming, the closest timeline where you would see first episodes come out would be the autumn of 2026. The production updates will be updated both on Backerkit and social media (Mainly on Instagram @ghostfacenikol and @puffandpieanimated )
Vograce as a Fulfillment Merchandise Company
We are also happy to announce that all the exclusive rewards for this fan-funded campaign will be produced/full-filled by Vograce! We’ve been working closely together since 2022. I appreciate their interest in supporting the project and delivering all the keychains, stickers and acrylic standees to the fans. If you're an artist, I highly recommend their services whether you're selling at an artist alley, online art store or even planning your own crowdfunding project.
Notice: Once the funding ends, it might take time for all the rewards to reach your doorstep due production time and shipping. Merchandise production and shipment will be constantly updated.
Why Backerkit?
So? Why are we creating crowdfunding on Backerkit? Well as you may know, now more than ever indie animation has started to thrive. Which means, with the help of the fans, we can make anything happen! Before, you’d expect the majority of animation concepts not to make it past the pitching room, sometimes the idea wasn’t something a company was looking for their network. As we moved to a more digital era, things have changed- if there’s an idea and a fandom, we can make it happen!
We appreciate any help towards the funding of the Puff & Pie series! We of course did not forget to bring in exclusive rewards for your support!

We are looking to fully fund the entire season once we reach the main goal of 9000€! After that, it follows a few stretch goals that can be something fans would enjoy.
10.000€ Stretch goal, is me getting to draw multiple “risqué” art of my character Pie, if you know, you know- I get a feeling that there’s… definitely ugh someone who wants to see it…right? RIGHT?????
13.000€ Stretch goal is a Spanish dub! I am well aware that there’s a lot of Spanish speaking fans, and if we reach the goal- I would love for the entire season to get dubbed in Spanish.
17.000€ Stretch goal is a unique animated Halloween special! Unlike the typical episode, this one is up to 1-2 minutes long and follows a unique storyline that sets us up for the Halloween vibe.
Hi! I am Nikol, some of you may have known or recognized me as GhostfaceNikol back on Youtube animation meme era in the ancient times of 2016-2020, I’ve been creating art since 2012. But, my characters and stories became more visible in late 2016, when I posted my very first animation meme “FORGET” with one of my characters “Cream Puff”. I started to post animated work as someone who was looking to learn 2D animation and post stories about my horror characters, never expecting for it to take off so soon and reach 100k subscribing fans at the end of 2017. I kid you not, I thought to myself, there is no way we are going beyond that.
But, here we are! As I’ve entered 2018, more characters like Pie showed up, yes, that guy sure became the fan's “favorite” haha. But, I loved his character so much that he became the second mascot for my channel.
As years passed, I finally got a chance to study abroad in London and learn animation, alongside I started to improve my animation work, backgrounds and compositing. Which actually also led me to my first industry job working as a 2D after effects compositor on Helluva Boss!
So, after all these 10 years- what’s the end goal of it all? Well, my dream since the very beginning was that I do want to create animated series, I want to see these characters thrive in their own world and for everyone that stayed around to see these characters for such a long time to experience them finally being outside of the animation meme bubble where they have their own story to tell.
I really appreciate all the support for the past 10 years, I could of never imagined for so many people to care about these characters for so long, that is why I wish 2026 to be a year where I finally show how far we can go with the animated series and the characters!
