"We are so pleased to be able to showcase the hard work of all our
80+ cast and crew from the local Georgia film community for this 1st season.

Horror
Hotel is an anthology series that features intriguing stories inspired by The
Twilight Zone with episodes spanning sci-fi/fantasy/horror and suspense. It's been
a family affair since its inception with creator Ricky Hess working side by
side with his mom Debbie Hess, the Executive Producer, and his dad, Al Hess,
writer of all the 1st season episodes.
All
the uncanny stories take place in a seedy, old motor court style motel located
in the fictional town of Poganisville. The imaginative set was custom
built and acts like a character of its owncreating just the right
"macabre" atmosphere for the twisted plots and surprise endings that
viewers have come to love and expect.
1st
season saw a collection of 6 episodes with over 90 minutes of quality content.
2nd season is now in production and kicked off with a sci-fi episode titled
"Aliens Stole My Boyfriend". Veteran Horror Hotel actors Stephanie
Stevens from 1st season "Guillotine" and James Edward Thomas
("Houdini's Hand", "Invader", and "Guillotine")
returns for the first episode. Actors Austin Freeman, Anastasia Peck and Katlyn
Wood round out the talented cast. The 2nd season episode will feature shots on
the custom built miniature motel model of Horror Hotel and a custom designed
space buggy that crash lands in the parking lot of the motel.
All episodes of “Horror Hotel” can be streamed now on the free,
ad-supported Hulu and Hulu Plus subscription service at
