They were surprised with the quality of the story, the production and the acting, he added. García explained that the 13 seven-minute webisodes will be broadcast in the days leading up to Halloween, with the finale scheduled for October 31st.Almas Perdidas is a suspense story starring Angélica Blandón. It features the chooser option, which allows the viewer to pick between two possible endings for each episode. In the U.S. it will premiere on-air, and the rest of the episodes will be available daily online.García also said they are already preparing a new web series for Tr3s, with the same intention of feeding the two platforms: TV and Web.This new series will have a budget larger than that of Almas Perdidas (which was approximately US$150 thousand). It will be a more universal and powerful story and will feature an international cast.
