Hallmark or Horror Episode 1: The Quiet Inn

 

                HALLMARK OR HORROR

     EPISODE 1

        THE QUIET INN



A workaholic woman looking for a new start stumbles on a remote inn deep in the woods...


Out behind the inn, she finds a man with an axe...


The man takes her inside the inn...


And he makes her dinner...


Then he takes her upstairs to the bedroom...


Then he takes her for a walk in the woods.



So how did your story end?

Under the mistletoe with a six foot hunk?

Or chopped into hunks and buried six feet under?

Announcing Hallmark or Horror!

 

    HALLMARK OR HORROR?





I'm starting a new series of posts on social media satirizing the fact that Hallmark movie synopses can sound as much like horror flicks as they do heartwarming romances.

You can follow me on:

At the end of each episode I will post the complete story, in order, here on my blog.

I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I've enjoyed making them!

The Conscription topped out as a Semi-finalist, but it was so unexpected to make it that far. I got a lot of really helpful feedback that helped me turn this short screenplay into a full length feature.

Thank you Screencraft!

GORDON'S KNOT (UPDATED!)






What if you could go back in time and fix one regret?

When fourteen-year-old Mary Gordon is given a supposed magical relic that can do just that, Mary writes it off as another tall tale from her grandmotherly neighbor with a penchant for storytelling, 

Until she discovers that it’s not a tall tale at all, just in time to undo an unbearable humiliation at the hands of a school bully.

But what she thinks is an easily solved problem turns out to be anything but, as she discovers not everyone is what they appear to be and that not every hard problem needs a complicated solution.
