Happy Halloween, readers! Now that October 31st is finally upon us, I thought I’d put together a collection of short-form frights for you all to enjoy and to get you ready for the spooky shenanigans to come once the darkness falls on our favorite holiday. I wanted to feature thrills and chills of all varieties, so I do hope you dig on this eclectic group of horror-minded shorts from all over the world.
Also, be forewarned: some of these are probably Nsfw, so if you are looking for a distraction while at work, you may want to make sure you have your headphones handy. Enjoy, and in case you missed it, check here to read our other Halloween 2017 coverage.

Barcelona based stop motion animators Marc Riba and Anna Solanas have long been favorites of the genre film circuit, their deliciously dark sensibilities fused with remarkable technical skills and a jet black sense of humor. So when the duo send out an animated Christmas card ... well, you know it's going to be a bit outside the norm.Check out the duo's Christmas greeting below, where I'm also throwing in the teaser for their recent short Canis so you can get a taste of what happens when this talented duo take the dark gothic urges that the Tim Burtons of the world wear like a fashion template and take them seriously....

How much do I know about the plot of Marc Riba and Anna Solanas' new animated short Les Bessones Del Carrer De Ponent? Not a thing. Absolutely nothing. And how much do I care? Not at all.
You see, Riba and Solanas are responsible for a little film called Violeta, a wonderfully grim - and Grimm - fairy tale that is a huge, huge favorite of mine. That film was my introduction to the duo and I have since become convinced that the pair are absolute geniuses. Everything they do is simply fantastic in a dark, macabre sort of way and I'm happy to follow wherever they care to lead.
As to where that may be this time, check out the teaser for their latest - a thirteen minute short - below. We need a feature from these two some day soon ...
