This is (supposedly) a complete and current list of all the horror film
festivals in the world. Help me keep this list updated! If you have info, please email me at upp_mike@yahoo.com. I've tried only to include festivals who accept submissions from filmmakers. There are many festivals showing already-released films. Such festivals are not listed here. Festivals still under consideration... Haapsalu Horror Film Festival (Black Knights Film Festival) |
