Windy City HorroramaHorror Society and the newly re-opened landmark Davis Theater want to send chills down your spine this spring showcasing the best the genre has to offer.

The first ever WINDY CITY HORRORAMA is a film festival celebrating the DIY spirit of independent genre films, from the hard working hands that make them to the enthusiastic audiences that come out in droves to see them. Chicago has such a robust film and genre fan community, those involved with this event can’t wait to be a part of its rich tradition while presenting some kickass horror!

The festival will take place from Friday, April 27 to Sunday, April 29, day and night at the Davis Theater, a recently refurbished theater and bar in Chicago’s historic Lincoln Square neighborhood. Fest co-founder and Horror Society programmer Matt Storc is teaming up with Chicago International Film Festival’s After Dark programmer Alex Vazquez to put together a weekend of skin-crawling movies, filmmaker interaction, drinking, and celebrations of all things horror.

HorrorSociety.com has always been your voice for independent horror. So let your voice be heard! If you have a horror, sci-fi, fantasy, or otherwise genre-based short or feature film, WINDY CITY HORRORAMA is now accepting your entries. Submit exclusively through FilmFreeway at https://filmfreeway.com/festival/WindyCityHorrorama, and visit windycityhorrorama.com for more information.

As a taste of what’s to come, we’re proud to unveil our exclusive key art for the Festival, created by the incomparable Tommy Fleming. Be sure to check out his other art on Instagram at @tommyruddfleming.

Dark Chicago has received a set of tickets to give away to a special advance screening of FRIEND REQUEST at 7:30 pm on September 20th. To claim yours, simply visit http://www.gofobo.com/FRDarkChicago! These screenings are first-come, first-served and tend to fill up to capacity, so plan to arrive early!

Popular college student Laura (Alycia Debnam-Carey) has tons of friends, both on Facebook and IRL. She graciously accepts social outcast Marina’s (Liesl Ahlers) online friend request, until Marina crosses the line and Laura unfriends her. To everyone’s shock, Marina takes her own life in a ritual meant to torment Laura, which appears in a video posted on Laura’s profile. Even though it wasn’t Laura who posted the video, or other creepy content that begins appearing on her page, her Facebook friend count begins to dwindle as a result. When her real-life friends start dying mysterious, cruel deaths, Laura must figure out how to break the deadly curse before it’s too late.

FRIEND REQUEST opens nationwide on September 22nd.
