Cemetery Shadows

A tiny cemetery, old and thick with shadows. A dozen weathered tombstones, a single small mausoleum. To one side stands a wrought-iron gate, opposite is a slight rise with a single spreading oak tree. All the world beyond the cemetery is a black void. There exists only this little graveyard. Home to four disparate spirits. Born each evening with the setting sun, returning to their slumber each morning with the dawn. Their eternal existence is disrupted when a new arrival appears at the gate and no one is quite sure what tomorrow will bring. Heavy on Twilight Zone influence. Cemetery Shadows screenplay recently placed Finalist in a fantasy short script competition. Industry Feedback "The script’s strengths are the writing style and voice, the concept and the tone."
