A thrilling new horror film festival is set to make its debut in Beverley, bringing a fresh celebration of genre cinema to the heart of East Yorkshire.

While full details are still to come, the festival, planned for next year, is currently in development, with organisers working hard behind the scenes to secure exciting film selections, connect with global filmmakers, and partner with local venues like the independent Parkway Cinema Beverley. The aim is to create a weekend of electrifying screenings, Q&As, and special events that will engage both filmmakers and audiences in the love of all things horror.

The festival is the brainchild of Hull-based actor and creative Daniel Smales, who is dedicated to making Beverley a hub for horror lovers. “There’s a real passion for horror in this area, and we’re doing everything we can to bring it to the big screen in a way that’s inclusive, creative, and bold,” said Smales. “We’re thrilled to be working with local partners and filmmakers to make this festival a reality.”

Details on festival dates, film submissions, and event specifics will be revealed soon. In the meantime, fans and filmmakers alike can stay up to date on social media and through the official website.
