The ScreenCraft Horror Screenplay Contest is an annual competition dedicated to discovering and promoting emerging talent in horror screenwriting for both feature films and television. Recognized by IndieWire as the "#1 horror screenplay contest," it offers winners and finalists opportunities for industry introductions, placements with literary managers and producers, and inclusion in the ScreenCraft Writer Development Program. The contest has a history of helping writers sign with major companies and secure staffing in writing rooms.
