The Indestructible is about a disturbed and delusional teenager with a passion for illustration who must go to disturbing extremes to earn the approval of his peers the only way he knows how. Soon enough his reality and fantasy become blurred.


From writer/director Kalen Artinian (Hellvetica, Ruby’s Secret)

"This film has been a passion project of mine since I began writing it in December 2012. 11 drafts later here we are. I personally feel that it’s the best script I’ve ever written and I can’t wait to get into production and eventually see it on the big screen. This film has a completely batshit insane finale that has to be seen to be believed. Blending live action with animation in a way that has never been done before. It’s an extremely ambitious film and we need your help to make this beautiful project a reality."

On an island with a prison for the most evil and powerful criminals in the world, a new prisoner is strapped to the electric chair for execution. After multiple surges of electricity and nearly knocking out power to the entire island, the prisoner is finally dead. The staff buries him in the prison graveyard with a simple marker baring three numbers: 489.

After the body is buried, a violent storm rocks the islands and a staff member goes missing. The crew rushes into the storm, searching for their lost comrade. They find that the burial site of prisoner 489 has been unearthed, and the body that was inside has gone missing. With a horrific finding and strange noises around them, a powerful threat is closing in. It’s a threat that they thought was impossible, and it will force them into a battle for their lives.

Check out the great reviews…

"From first sentence to ending word, The Sacrifice of Candace Blake will have you chewing on your nails as you read."

"In any good horror story you'll have the elements of destruction, fear, manipulation, mystery and oftentimes death. The Sacrifice of Candace Blake has all of these elements. It builds the intrigue of what's going on in the shadows of a sleepy town and turns it into something reminiscent of your favorite, frightful horror stories. Stephen Semones proves to be a master of horror as you'll find yourself desperate to know more, if one would dare to."

"This book grabbed me in the very beginning and I read it from cover to cover that night. Very well written. I highly recommend this book."

"I immediately liked the characters, but didn't see what was coming for them. I couldn't put it down. Each chapter delved deeper into a very dark place. Be warned, there are graphic moments but they are tempered by a character that gives you hope in the timeless story of good and evil."

"Loved it and encourage everyone to purchase it and share with friends."

Dark Waves


“Beautiful turns of phrase and some thoughtful prose really elevates what is essentially a simple story. The sense of dread was thick and pervasive by the end. I enjoyed this old-fashioned horror story where the horror exists in your mind. I hope he writes more in this vein."

There are those who believe that science can explain everything. John Stedman is such a man. As a sound engineer, he uses his expertise in subsonic resonance to debunk hauntings, and pursues the task with a missionary zeal. In the lead up to the launch of his book on the subject, he accepts a challenge from a journalist to investigate a particularly powerful haunting at The Dawlish Inn, a 15th Century tavern situated on the south coast of England. John is all set for a pleasant weekend in the country, good food, local ale, and interesting company. But beneath the cosy bar and gourmet restaurant, down in the ancient cellar of the inn, something is waiting for him, something his science can not easily explain, an encounter that will change his world forever.

The filmmakers, director John William Holt and writer Jason Turner, are pleased to release a second, much bloodier trailer for The Dooms Chapel Horror right here!


This extended trailer shows the conflicts housed within Kaler Mills. Kyle (Austin Madding) returns to his hometown, after being absent for ten years. He is there to put a family tragedy to rest. Blamed for the death of his brother, Ryan (William Ryan Watson, Stoker), he hopes to clear his name, by proving that his brother’s death was an accident. But, something in the woods promises to take even more from Kyle.

The Dooms Chapel Horror debuted on the big screen to a packed crowd. The World Premiere of the film was sold-out as producer, Christopher Bower, brought the film back to where it was filmed.

The official trailer for the film is available here:


A downloadable version of the trailer is available here:




The official synopsis: “A horrific family tragedy, a town that lays blame, a boy who wants revenge. The Dooms Chapel Horror rises to unleash its terrible vengeance on the tight-knit, southern town of Kaler Mills.

Blamed for the death of his celebrated older brother, young Kyle Cole is tormented by members of the community, to the point of no return. A secret meeting at the compound of a mysterious and dangerous man named Jordan sets the fate of the town...only to be put on hold as Kyle's parents, succumbing to their grief, abruptly send Kyle away to be raised by distant relatives.

Now, years later, Kyle is a young man on the verge of graduating from college. He is joined by his girlfriend Mandy and Tanner, a young documentary filmmaker, as he travels back to Kaler Mills. He hopes to find peace with his mother and father and to finally deal with the events that caused him so much sadness and anger as a boy. But, his parents are not the only ones waiting for Kyle's return. The table is still set and Jordan, his adopted son Samuel and the dark, ancient creation of Kyle's vengeance have been waiting...and they are hungry!

Coffee Shop of Horrors Screamliner


Coffee so good, it’ll wake the dead. That’s what we offer at the Coffee Shop of Horrors.

We’ve been selling our gourmet beans since 2007, as well as a small selection of tantalizing teas. Our customers and friends love that we combine high quality java with our horror themed sense of humor. Even our mummy says we’re cool. 

One of our promises to you is we won’t sell any coffee over 30 days roasted, if it goes over, we take the bullet and drink it so you never get a bad cup of coffee. Remember, we LOVE you guys because without you there is no us ;) Besides who likes old brains anyways… oops I mean beans. 




We’ve been selling beans on the web for some time, but we’ve decided we want to do more than that. It’s time to bring the Coffee Shop of Horrors to the real world, and then take it all over the real world. We’ve purchased a 26’ Streamline trailer, and need your help to turn it into the Screamline mobile coffee shop. 


We will serve your favorites, from a plain coffee with two shots of scream, to a mochaccino full of frothy doom, with plenty of variety to choose from. Also, if you want a real scream, you’ll all scream for our soft serve ice cream, in our yummy coffee flavors! We’ll also serve locally sourced baked goods, as well as some gluten free options, for those zombies that can’t eat graaaaaaaaaaiiiiiins. 



Like coffee? I know you like horror! Then please help them combine the two and literally bring the coffee to you by clicking the pic!


Please don’t disappoint…

Bill Oberst Jr. joins the horror crime erotic Night of the Babysitter!


Actor, Bill Oberst Jr. (The Retrieval, Circus of the Dead, Criminal Minds) has officially agreed to play the lead role opposite rising star, Dora Madison Burge (Friday Night Lights, Dexter, That’s What I’m Talking About) in Louis Edward Doerge’s horror/crime thriller, Night of the Babysitter. Bill will be playing the enigmatic FATHER of Dora, who has enlisted his daughter’s help in his year-long revenge against those he blames for the death of his wife.

Bill Oberst had this to say about his involvement in the film:

"One of the great pleasures of this business is encountering rising young writing and directing talents on their way up. When those rising talents also happen to take cinema seriously as an art form, as Louis Doerge does, that's when real magic can happen. NIGHT OF THE BABYSITTER is dark and sinister; bold and original. It's an arthouse crime film in the guise of a horror movie. The script does what movies are supposed to do - it submerges the reader's imagination into a world of the filmmaker's choosing, and I believe the movie is going to do exactly the same thing. I'm excited to be onboard and I hope fans of arthouse movies, thriller movies, horror movies and crime movies (not to mention the legion of fans of Dora Madison Burge) will get excited about it, too."



Doerge said about Bill Oberst’s involvement, “We are extremely excited to be working with the incredible talent that is Bill Oberst. He’s more than well versed in these genres and is a cinematic force to be reckoned with.”

Night of the Babysitter, which is going to be shot on Super 16mm film by Jeff Wedding (Measure of the Sin), begins shooting late January. There is currently a crowdfunding campaign on INDIEGOGO for the film. igg.me/at/notb. Money raised from the campaign will go to paying crew salaries, so they don’t have to work for deferred pay, and film processing costs.
