In July 2021, YouTuber and film critic Chris Stuckmann signed on to write and direct a mystery supernatural horror film titled Shelby Oaks for Paper Street Pictures.[5] The film is based on an online marketing campaign depicting series of found footage videos about a fictional paranormal investigative team named the Paranormal Paranoids.[6] The film will be produced by Stuckmann, Aaron B. Koontz, Cameron Burns, and Ashleigh Snead.[7]
Funding for the film was achieved via a Kickstarter campaign that began on March 1, 2022. On March 21, Shelby Oaks became the most-funded horror film project on Kickstarter after raising $650,000.[8] The campaign crossed the $1 million mark from 11,200 backers by March 25.[9] The cast was revealed at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2022.[4]
Filming
Principal photography commenced in May 2022, and is scheduled to conclude in early June.[4] Filming took place in Cleveland, Ohio,[8] including the Brennan House in Louisville, Kentucky, Ohio State Reformatory, and an abandoned amusement park.[1] Production was set to begin in late 2021,[7] but was delayed due to insufficient funds and a potential strike between the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP).[10]
Release
Shelby Oaks is set to be theatrically released in July 2023.[2]
