Our Story

The 2nd annual Fears for Queers GLBT Horror Film Festival celebrates the diversity of horror films and horror fans by showcasing horror written and/or directed by GLBT filmmakers and/or of a GLBT theme. Most importantly, this film festival raises funds for Youth First Texas, a non-profit youth center in Dallas, Texas for GLBTQ youth and their allies by donating half of all ticket sales to them.

This film festival is organized in association with Right Left Turn Productions, an independent film production company owned and operated by gay filmmaker Shawn Ewert.
