The 15th Annual Atlanta Horror Film Festival is held October 7 - 9, 2021 and you are invited!
We are one of the only festivals that presented a live show during the 2020 pandemic in a safe, outdoor environment. No matter what the circumstances, the show must go on.
Our entry fees have been deeply discounted for 2021. Filmmakers of all experience levels are encouraged to be a part of the 2021 festival!
AHFF is the top horror film festival in Atlanta. We are dedicated to showcasing films from the world's most talented filmmakers. Our program is packed with award-winning films from every corner of the earth.
In our 15 seasons, we have consistently programmed films that stick with you long after the festival is over, and films you won't see anywhere else. AHFF is a must for established and up-and-coming filmmakers who have created short and feature films that audiences will not and can not forget.
Our selection committee programs every type of film in the horror genre: from sci-fi to gore, and everything in between. 2021 will be a celebration of 15 great years, and a huge party is already being planned!
