Horror Short Screenplay

I have written a short screenplay called The House With Wi-Fi that features few characters, limited locations, and could be produced on a low-budget.

Logline: A couple who park in the yard of an abandoned house to use the house's mysterious wi-fi connection, see a ghost-like old woman through one of the house's windows.

Synopsis:

Late at night, Michael and Elsa, a young married couple, park their car in the yard of an abandoned house. The couple have recently moved into the area and, in an effort to save money, are going to use a strange wi-fi connection that is from the house.

Elsa uses a laptop and accesses the wi-fi connection through a link that ominously reads: DIE1414. After she connects to the wi-fi, Michael and her notice a light turn on in the house and a ghost-like old Woman who stands by one of the windows in the house. The Woman holds a blood-stained chain and lead pipe in her hands.

The Woman looks at them and suddenly security-camera-like footage of the old Woman standing inside the house pops up on the screen of the laptop. Michael and Elsa then look toward the old Woman in the house and at the footage on the laptop as the Woman walks through the house.

Several newspaper articles then pop up on the screen. The articles are all about the Woman, how the corpses of fourteen children were found in her home, and that she committed suicide in prison after being arrested. The final newspaper article mentions how her old home is supposed to be haunted.

Elsa and Michael, now terrified by what they have seen, are about to drive away when suddenly the light in the house goes out and the Woman walks off-screen of the security-camera-like footage. Michael puts the car in reverse, turns around to look out the back window of the vehicle, and sees the old Woman in the backseat. She is covered in blood and holds the blood-stained chain and lead pipe.

I am still looking to have my first script produced and gain experience in the film industry.

My screenplays Louise and Personal Space were selected as runners-up in the 2012 Midnight Black International Festival screenplay contest.

The e-script website LiteraryMovies.com selected my screenplay Louise to include on their site. If you would like to read my screenplay just e-mail me back at [email protected]. Thank you for your time.
