Scare Tactics: The Craft of Writing Horror Films

Since it’s spooky season, we thought it would be fitting to kick start our events programming with a virtual panel on writing horror films. This hourlong discussion will focus on how our panel of screenwriters honed their writing process, their horror inspirations, what they consider elements of an excellent scary story, as well as general advice for writers interested in the genre.  

Panelists:

  • Akela Cooper (M3GAN, The Nun 2, Malignant)

  • Carey W. Hayes & Chad Hayes (The Conjuring franchise, The Turning)

Moderated by Jeffrey Reddick (Final Destination franchise, Don’t Look Back)

Panel starts at 5:00pm Pacific time.

After signing up, you’ll receive information on how to access the Zoom panel.
