New Orleans Horror Film Festival (LLC) is a horror film festival created by horror filmmakers for horror fans. As film auteurs ourselves, we appreciate the blood, sweat & tears that go into making movies. We also understand that the fans are ready for something different!

It’s no small wonder & no great surprise that so many of today’s top directors got their start in “low budget horror”. With determination & imagination, these artists have created some truly memorable work that has encouraged & inspired a new generation of filmmakers.

The NOHFF is committed to celebrating the craft & the art of genre filmmaking at its best. And who knows, maybe discovering “Horror’s Next Big Thing”.

The New Orleans Horror Film Festival (LLC) takes place in the world famous French Quarter during the last weekend of September 2013.

The NOHFF will be held at the beautiful, elegant and historic INN ON BOURBON. Click on either of the images to visit the Inn on Bourbon website.

The Inn on Bourbon, on the corner of Toulouse and Bourbon Streets, rests on the site of the Old French Opera House, the cultural center of New Orleans Creole society, and the first opera house in the United States.

 

Erected in 1859 at a cost of $118,000, it was opened to the public on December 1, 1859. The opera house was one of the most famous masterpieces designed by noted architect James Gallier, architect of Gallier Hall and many other classic 18th century buildings.

From 1859 until it burned in 1919, the French Opera House was not only the scene of hundreds of operas, but was the hub of the dwindling Creole society, the last refuge of the "creme-de-la-creme."

One reminder of its presence remains - an indention on Bourbon Street leading to the entrance of the hotel. It was here that the fancy carriages of the Creole aristocrats parked to discharge the elegantly dressed passengers.

The Inn on Bourbon is located at 541 Bourbon Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70130. Contact: 504-524-7611. www.innonbourbon.com
