2026 FESTIVAL SCHEDULE

Schedule is subject to change or adjustment. Make sure to leave extra time to avoid missing anything. Films in the shorts programs are listed in alphabetical order, not necessarily in the order in which they will screen.

TICKET INFO: Tickets are pay-what-you-can with suggested contributions of $10 per programming block or $50 for the full festival. We are a small festival with limited seating, so all tickets are first come, first served.

CONTENT WARNING: The films in our festival are independently created and as a result most are not rated. Films may include scares, spookiness, shock, violence, gore, coarse language, smoking, drug use, nudity, themes of a sexual nature, or other mature themes. Viewer discretion is advised.
