The Stylite
Adapted from my novel "The Stylite" now out on Amazon.
Teresa Amadei is a young stylite, a wandering, ascetic demon hunter, trained in the Way of Fire. Her teacher, Father Simon, a Byzantine martial artist monk, sends her on a journey to the city of Alexantine in the Midwestern US, where many are moving to escape the growing chaos in the world. Along the way she stops at towns and cities and battles the Daemoklos, demons who have escaped from their prison, to seal them away by writing them back into their eponymous grimoire. She is aided by her older cousin and fellow stylite, Matthew Abbate, and crosses paths with the mysterious black knight, the Saracen, with his own agenda.

You can follow me for updates and other things on Instagram @shanehallawa.
The novelization of my story "The Stylite" is now available on Amazon.
This script is a full adaptation of the novel, hence the number of pages. I have also broken the script up into four smaller parts in relation to the divisions in the story (all within 120 pages, give or take); however, I am only able to upload two files at a time relating to the project.
If you would like to see the smaller scripts, please contact me and I will deliver them over.
Thank you for your consideration.
