The 2026 Richmond 48 Hour Horror Film Project is less than three weeks away, and there’s still time to get involved.
Whether you’re an actor, filmmaker, or crew member looking for a team to join—come meet the Richmond creatives who are making horror movies just in time for Halloween!
Our FREE Speed Networking event is WEDNESDAY, September 23 at 6:30 p.m. at The Hof (in the Loft), 2816 W. Broad St., Richmond.
DON’T HAVE A TEAM? THIS IS FOR YOU.
- You do not need to be on a team to attend.
- If you want to participate in the Richmond 48 Hour Horror Film Project but don’t know where to start, this is one of the easiest ways to get in the room with team leaders who are actively looking for people.
- Come introduce yourself, talk about what you do—or what you’d like to do—and make some connections.
- Bring headshots, comp cards, business cards–something to give the people you meet to make it easy for them to remember and follow up with you.
- Your 48 Hour Horror team could be in the room.
WANT TO START YOUR OWN TEAM?
There’s still time for that, too!
- Pull together some friends (or people you meet at the networking event), claim a team name, and see what you can write, shoot, edit, and deliver in just 48 hours.
- REGISTER YOUR HORROR 48 TEAM
