This is the story behind Haunted House FearFest.
In this episode, I’m sharing how my love for horror started—from watching films like The People Under the Stairs to finding comfort in fear during difficult moments growing up—and how that eventually led me to build an immersive horror festival from the ground up.
I talk about:
- Why horror has always felt like a form of escape and control
- What I learned working in corporate media and why I decided to build something of my own
- The idea behind the “House” and how each room represents a different experience with fear
- Why indie horror creators deserve a space to be seen
Haunted House FearFest isn’t just a festival—it’s a curated world built around fear, storytelling, and discovery.
