250 word synopsis of my vampire film. "The tale of the Vampire"

Jay is a young student who is a huge horror enthusiast. He loves anything to do with Horror but he has a very keen interest in Vampires in particular. He prefers the old classic vampire stories. Jay believes that Vampires are real so he wants to find out some more information about Vampires to help prove his theory so, he decides that a good person to ask would be the old priest in his local church (Which is extremely old and ancient and gothic in appearance. It also has a lot of history behind it – which could be vampire related.)


When Jay gets to the Church and begins to question the priest, the priest is very dismissive at first and won’t answer any of Jay’s questions. After a while Jay begins to become very agitated with the Priest and begins to demand to have his questions answered. The Priest reluctantly gives in because he can see that Jay is passionate and knowledgeable. But, the Priest warns him that the information that Jay is about to be told should remain a secret for the safety of himself and others.

The priest tells Jay old stories of vampires that had really happened and describes horrific details and describes the Vampires and terrifying monsters that lust over blood. He also tells Jay that Vampires really do exist but he should never try to find one as Vampires are not how they are described in the story books. They are much worse...  

Jay ends up trying to gather more and more information... However he ends up finding out more than he bargained for!

  1. www a good set up with clear potential, the use of religion as a backdrop is powerful and the locations suggested are also good.

    ebi think about what we discussed last week about the priest being the vampire, perhaps in denial, using his religious faith to fight his vampiric urges. This could itself be of course seen as a metaphor for something else...
    Can you also submit a script for the opening sequence. 3 pages maximum.

    1. I have some good idea now for the priest being the vampire.. I didn't want to mention it in the pitch though because wanted to leave it as a surprise for the class.
