Spooky Empire begins TODAY - and there’s no better way to kick off our 2026 film festival than to give a massive thank you to the sponsors that made it possible! Each of these incredible businesses, organizations, and individuals gave their time, support, and donations to help create a space that celebrates indie horror filmmaking. Thank you, sponsors - we’re honored to have you as a part of our Spooky family!
