I’m honoured that ‘Zeeka and the Zombies’ was recognized among the top 25 % of entries in the horror-com screenplay contest 2025. This story is a tribute to Caribbean resilience, imagination, and the power of speculative fiction to reveal truth through terror.
The Contest Director commended my screenplay for its complex narrative, emotional depth, and cinematic horror, highlighting standout moments such as the Carnival massacre, the twist involving Chief Grady, and the poignant revelation of Zeeka’s hidden humanity.
This recognition marks a major milestone in my journey to bring my literary universe to the screen, reinforcing my reputation as a visionary storyteller with global impact.
I thank the judges, my loving family, Stage 32 for introducing me to Horror.com, my friends in my network, and all who continue to believe in me and the magic of storytelling.
