Watch bite-sized indie horror films made by local filmmakers, both amateur and experienced.

LIVE Premiere

This year we are extremely lucky to have two of the best venues in Vermont for our premiere: The Welden Theater in St. Albans on October 24th, and the Sunset Drive-In on October 27th. ***Please see each venues website for their up-to-date COVID policies.***

Best Film Award

Viewers and judges decide who received both the festival’s grand prize and excellence awards.

Ask for Help

We’re filmmakers, too. Ask our team for guidance creating your original short horror film via email.

“The premiere and celebration afterwards were so fun—a great opportunity to meet other creators.”
