Like horror films?

Then you’ll love Cleveland Horror Fest.

We’ll be showcasing horror films created by independent filmmakers all around the world–short films, feature films, and everything in between.

We also have a great lineup of workshops and panels that let you peak behind the curtain of the filmmaking process–writing, acting, special effects, and more. Plus parties and other great events.

Join us this October 1st – 3rd at Atlas Cinemas in Shaker Square for a frightfully good time that you won’t soon forget!
