Director Biography - Nina Romain

Nina Romain is living proof that small children shouldn't be taken trick-or-treating in Alabama a long while ago - or they tend to end up obsessed with the creepier side of Halloween! Her horror shorts tend to be shot half in the seedier side of Los Angeles and half in the darker side of the UK. This includes the UK's "most haunted" village" in Fright Corner starring Games of Thrones' actor Rob Callender. Trapped in Time, released this summer, has screened in the States' Severed Limbs film festival, London's Halloween Horror Film Festival and will screen in Horror on Sea in January 2025.
