Short and Scary is a full evening of ten-minute horror plays perfect for summer theater or the Halloween season; they also work well for episodic filming.

These nine ghostly stories with a feminist twist include Under the Bed, teasing us with what’s coming, making it even more frightening; Camp Lumberjack, introducing us to the mysterious Heloise who finds herself trapped in a haunted camp; The Perfect Boyfriend, opening with Abby terrified because someone broke in and cleaned her apartment; Whispering to the Dead, featuring a perfect first date until Kyle finds out what Elise does for a living; 15 Minutes in a Haunted House, taking us on a journey that ends very badly for Matt; The Rest of Your Life, turning the tables on a would-be killer; The Night Visitor, probing the demons that follow us; Take My Place, driving Olivia mad with cries from the attic that never end; and Ghost Pond, bringing new friends together until the local ghost stories tear them apart. A callback to Under the Bed ends the evening.
