Taking Submissions: Lost Films

October 31, 2017

Deadline: October 31st, 2017
Payment: $0.02 per word

Attention, writers of horror fiction.

We’re currently seeking short stories for an upcoming anthology titled Lost FilmsIn 2016 we released Lost Signals, which has done very well for us. Think of Lost Films as its sequel.

We are looking for horror stories involving films, Hollywood, projectors & projectionists, home movies, webcams, television, documentaries, and other themes involving recorded visual disturbances. We want these stories to be weird and terrifying.

Some good examples of what we’re after: Cigarette Burns by John Carpenter, Starry Eyes by Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer, Experimental Film by Gemma Files, House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski, “Ardor” by Laird Barron, Videodrome by David Cronenberg, Angel of the Abyss by Ed Kurtz, and everything else discussed in this LitReactor article.

 

Deadline: October 31, 2017

Payment: $0.02 per word

Word count: 1,000-8,000

Reprints: No

 

Send all submissions to [email protected] with “LOST FILMS – [STORY] by [AUTHOR]” in the subject line. If you haven’t heard back from us by December 1st, feel free to query. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

And if you’re interested in the first installment, you can purchase Lost Signals here.

Good luck. I look forward to reading your stories.
