Halloween: Campus Horrors

It's the ETSU Michael Myers's last semester on campus and three students - Sam, Cindy, and Mark - set out to officially meet the campus legend before he vanishes for good. It all goes horribly wrong, though, as the students discover that what they thought was a student making a school tradition, hides a malevolent side. Now, they must hide and fight for their lives against an evil much closer to the silver screen Boogeyman than they had originally thought.

Director Statement

"I think when creating, you always try to get or find something out of other people, even if sometimes the work you make could be just for yourself. That collaboration and that excitement is what, to me, makes the process all the more enjoyable. So, if I make something scary, or sad, or whimsical, no matter what I make - because I want to make all kinds of stuff - and I get to see how people react, that makes my process worth it."
