    Thanks for selecting "Enter the Room" as an award winner for Mid length Horror Short and Director. The communication was clear and concise and I appreciate the fact that this festival doesn't require for you to submit to a specific category like so many other online festivals. I had a good experience overall and will consider submitting future projects to Nightmare Fuel Film Festival LA.
