A man faces a peculiar situation when he is asked to pet sit for a friend on Halloween night. Starring Jeff Lewis (THE GUILD), ArieScope’s 26th annual Halloween short film explores the dark side of novelty pets.

NOW PLAYING!

A mean king is scared of Halloween in this old fashioned fairy tale. In compliance with the 2023 Writers Guild and Screen Actors Guild strikes, ArieScope enlisted some outside (and unusual) help to pull off our milestone 25th annual Halloween short film!

The 24th annual Halloween short film from ArieScope Pictures is a public service announcement about a problem that far too many children face every Halloween. Won’t you please help?

When a global health crisis forces filmmaker and Halloween enthusiast Adam Green to take a year off from his tradition of giving out full size candy bars to Trick or Treaters, his reputation as the most generous guy in the neighborhood comes back to haunt him.  The coronavirus pandemic may have ruined Halloween for most people in 2020, but ArieScope’s 22nd annual Halloween short film proved that not even a worldwide plague could stop us from celebrating the greatest holiday of the year!

Three kids try and scare each other by playing a spooky game on Halloween night. Merrick Hanna, Presley Alexander, and Bryson Robinson star in ArieScope’s 21st annual Halloween short film.

All good things must come to an end. Or do they? Adam Green comes face to face(s) with one of his worst nightmares in the 20th annual ArieScope Halloween short film. Featuring an enormous cast from our two decades of Halloween shorts, THE INTERVENTION is the biggest short film in ArieScope history!

In 1998 Adam Green and Will Barratt threw together a short film called “Columbus Day Weekend” to screen at a Halloween party.  Little did they know that it would give birth to an annual tradition that would span two decades and spawn a feature film and television production studio that would become a leader of the indie horror scene.  FOR THE LOVE OF HALLOWEEN is a feature-length documentary film featuring all of your favorite key players from the ArieScope family as they take a walk down memory lane and share the candid stories behind their 20 years of Halloween shorts.

Being a monster isn’t as easy as it looks. Derek Mears (FRIDAY THE 13TH 2009), Kelly Vrooman (THE CHICA SHOW), and Colton Dunn (NBC’s SUPERSTORE) star as three hungry monsters that meet their match in ArieScope’s 17th annual Halloween short film.  Enjoy the short and then read Adam Green’s blog entry about making it, containing behind the scenes pictures from the set.  Read it here.

A Skype call between a husband and wife on Halloween night takes a disturbingly dark turn in our 16th annual Halloween short film starring Shawn Ashmore (X-MEN, THE FOLLOWING, FROZEN) and Brea Grant (HEROES, DEXTER).

The staff at ArieScope Pictures find themselves dealing with a horrifying dilemma after Adam Green rents a coffin for a special “15th Anniversary Halloween Party” and the strange man who drops it off insists that under no circumstances does he want the coffin returned to him. Little do they know that the reason the man does not want his coffin back is far more terrifying/adorable than even this group of seasoned horror movie filmmakers is prepared for. With many key faces from our core crew over the years playing themselves, HALLOWEEN HUGS may be the weirdest and most fun Halloween Short we’ve ever shot. And after 15 YEARS of making these… that’s saying a lot. “Who wants a hug?”
