I am incredibly excited about this. I just launched a Kickstarter to fund a series of horror shorts that I am basing off this thread from Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/1iwylh/what_is_the_best_horror_story_you_can_come_up/
Essentially they asked readers to submit their two-sentence scary stories, and man did the interwebs oblige. I was incredibly creeped out by reading through them and really wanted to make some into actual films! After gaining permission (Well hello copyright law!

I’ll be announcing more additions to the cast and crew both on this website and on http://pennyhorrors.com. Naturally I’m hoping people are able to support the project with money (every bit helps! Even $1!), but word of mouth does just as much with crowdfunding efforts, so a Tweet or a Facebook post is awesome too! But just in case you CAN help with a little bit of $$, here’s the link to the Kickstarter campaign:
