Award-winning film director, Dean Midas has confirmed that filming will start on his new horror short this weekend, 4 February.
Dean’s new movie will be called Eve Valentine and will see the return of the character of the same name, played by
Sam Lavery.
Eve’s last outing was in October 2022, with the popular All Hallows Eve Rebirth, the most watched film in the franchise’s history. Filming will also return to the Manor House Hotel in West Auckland, known as West Manor in the films.
Mr Midas said: “People love this character, she really captures people’s imagination. This film will give us an insight into Eve’s younger days.
“I can’t wait to get started and I can’t wait to get back to the Manor House.”
Dean will also team up with the music producer, Sam Haynes and local singer Jenna Learoyd for the film’s title track.
Dean’s last film, The Devil’s Stone won the audience vote at the Lift-Off Global Network Sessions hosted at the famous Pinewood Studios.
Eve Valentine will be released on Friday 26 April, just before the Halfway to Halloween weekend.

I’ve seen so much local hype and promotion for these films and don’t really understand it? They don’t look like proper films? What sort of awards are being won?
Great stuff! Can’t wait for Eve Valentine!
