DEATHSCRIBE
2010
The Third Annual International Festival
of Radio Horror Plays
The submission window for DEATHSCRIBE 2010 is officially open. The first two
years of our celebrated International Festival of Radio Horror went from amazing
to incredible; we can't wait to see what kind of crazed and creepy hits our
doorstep this year.
Deadline for submissions is October 1, 2010.
For
all the rules and info go to the DEATHSCRIBE
2010 page.
Remember, DEATHSCRIBE is all about you! What freaks you out -- is it bugs?
Ghosts? Serial killers? The past? The future? Death itself? How about life
itself?
Shape your fear into a ten-minute radio play and send it to the
Daemon. If it freaks us out too, perhaps you'll see it performed live at
this year's DEATHSCRIBE showcase event.
We had nearly a hundred submissions last year. We hope to see at least that
many this year, between now and midnight of October 1st. And we hope to see
your name in that list of submissions. Submit here - deathscribe2010@gmail.com

winner of the 2008 Bloody Axe:
"Dark and Stormy",
written by Albert Gerber,

"Let
me tell ya, these WildClaw kids are ones to look out for. The place
was packed, the tech was extensive and well worked out, the event
was like going to a comic book convention for horror fans."
