For filmmaker David F. Sandberg, the road to Hollywood was made possible by Lights Out, a short film that went viral online and eventually became a feature film that haunted theaters last summer (and made many people think twice the next time they turned off a light switch). Now, Sandberg and New Line Cinema are inviting horror fans to make their own short film inspired by James Wan's The Conjuring cinematic universe, with one lucky winner getting the opportunity to travel to Los Angeles and meet Sandberg.
"JAMES WAN AND THE CREATORS OF The Conjuring Universe are looking for fans to submit a short horror film. Submit your film (no more than 2 minutes in duration) inspired by The Conjuring Universe and the upcoming film Annabelle: Creation. The top filmmaker will receive a trip to Los Angeles to meet with the director of Annabelle: Creation, David F. Sandberg, or an executive from New Line Cinema.
Films must be submitted by 11:59 pm PT on July 27, 2017.
For additional contest information and to submit your video, please visit My Annabelle Creation or share David F. Sandberg's message to fans to create their own horror short."

When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
