What makes a terrifying Horror story? One vital element is suspense. Holding an audience’s fear and anxiety for long enough is a must-have on any Horror director’s checklist.

On October the 29th at RedYellowBlue, the night will start off with a handful of Horror animations, a selection of shorts films and before moving onto a very special screening of “Mab” followed by a Q&A with a panel of special guests. 

Although there are no official age ratings we do not recommend the event suitable for children.
