Shannon Brown began her career touring the country doing sketch and improv comedy and now lives in Los Angeles, where she writes and directs horror-comedy shorts. She has a passion for blending scares and belly laughs while bringing fun, relatable female characters to life. Most recently, her films were screened at Screamfest, Salem Horror Fest, Horrorhound Weekend, and Final Girls Berlin. Shannon credits her family for nourishing her comedic talent and her Catholic upbringing for her comfort with gore. Her unique brand of dark comedy and flair for the strange has been showcased at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater and in online publications such as Reductress, Atlas Obscura, Whohaha, and Rue Morgue. Shannon completed the Sundance Writing Horror for Film & Television intensive in 2023. Her horror-comedy short film, Demon Juice, is now streaming with Screamfest and TromaNow. Shannon’s next short, Overnights, is currently on the festival circuit. Committed to community, Shannon co-hosts a monthly horror filmmaker meetup for women and non-binary creators and a quarterly all-gender event with Anastasia Washington. Much like Shannon herself, the meetups are fun, yet approachable.
