WINNER ANNOUNCED: 11th Annual Search for New Blood Contest

Congratulations to the winner of this year's Search for New Blood Contest, Travis J. Opgenorth, who won with his supernatural horror script THE WHISPERERS!

Logline: When a psychic reading causes his wife to end her life, a skeptic ex-cop makes it his mission to debunk spiritualists, until he encounters two sisters whose seances conjure up dark truths, revealing how dangerous belief can be.

From here, Travis will head out on a full slate of meetings starting next month, including a year long mentorship with SVP of Features at 18 Hz, Nathan Samdahl, who worked as a studio development executive on amazing horror movies like SMILE, PET SEMATARY, OVERLORD, A QUIET PLACE, THE CLOVERFIELD PARADOX, and more!

Big kudos to Travis as he prepares to head out on this incredible journey!

And thank you to all the amazing writers that participated in this year's contest and made it the most competitive edition yet!
