Summer's Spookiest Celebration in NEPA!
Horror Movies, Live Bands, Art Vendors, and more
The NEPA Horror Fest began as the NEPA Horror Film Festival in October of 2015 with an event called "13 Short Films" at River Street Jazz Cafe in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The event was free and screened horror films from all around the world, including three locally-made films. It was a successful event with over 100 attendees. Since then, the festival has done a handful of screenings at Ale Mary's at the Bittenbender in Scranton, Pennsylvania, specializing in screening shot-on-video low-budget cult classics from the 1980s and 1990s.
Some of the feature-length films we have screened include John Wintergate's Boardinghouse (1982), Todd Sheets' Zombie Bloodbath (1993), Todd Jason Cook's Death Metal Zombies (1995), John and Mark Polonia's Feeder's 2: Slay Bells (1998), Austin Bosley's Dismembering Christmas (2015), and Ryan Logsdon's Agoni (2015). In 2016, we hosted "13 Short Films 2," with a more expanded event schedule comprised of film screenings, vendor tables, stand-up comedy, Q&A panels, and even celebrity guests. Today, our event has joined forces with the Scranton Punk Rock Flea Marker & Zinefest and has expanded to the Circle Drive-In in Dickson City, Pennsylvania to bring about a greater appreciation of independent filmmakers, visual artists, and musicians.
