WildClaw Searching for Deathscribes
Before the advent of the TV, everyone used to huddle around the radio to listen to shows like "The Shadow" and "War of the Worlds". If you haven’t heard some old recordings of those, you really should try and track them down. They’re amazing. But sadly, those days are long gone.
Well, WildClaw Theatre has decided to do something about that, and they’re looking for a few good fiends to help them out. WildClaw Theatre is a theatre company out of Chicago, Illinois who have made it their mission to bring their love of horror to the stage ... and now the airwaves.
According to company member A.C. Christensen, “WildClaw Theatre is proud to announce that we are now accepting submissions for the first annual Deathscribe Horror Radio Play Festival. We are looking for 10 minute radio scripts that are genuinely scary, imaginative, chilling, intelligent, suspenseful, horrific or downright grotesque. We put no restrictions on contestants as to content or tone, but keep in mind that we are a Horror Theatre.”
So, if you think you’ve got an idea that would make a killer radio short, check out their submission guidelines at Wildclaw's site and start typing!

We just got word from former Rue Morgue editor-in-chief Rodrigo Gudino that his latest short film, “The Facts in the Case of Mister Hollow”, will be making its premiere at this year’s Fantasia Film Festival! Hells yeah! I got to see Rodrigo’s last short, "The Demonology of Desire” (review), at the 2007 show, so this is a great tradition to keep running!









I'm such a HUGE fan of radio drama. It's the goods. I cannot wait to hear this. I've always wanted to have original content here like this but haven't figured out how to implement it properly!

Oh, so this isn't about Ripclaw, the guy from Silveri's Cyber-Force.
Carry on then.
