SCREAMFEST 2nd Place Winner. Comps: GHOSTBUSTERS' Winston Zeddemore meets THE FRIGHTENERS.

SYNOPSIS:

More than ever the world needs big-hearted heroes like real-life Philly Paramedic, Lawrence Amaker, (2017 Paramedic of the Year, Philadelphia), who reminds me a lot of Actor, Sam Richardson. Lawrence took me on a haunting ride-along to the locations of his most terrifying experiences. He quietly shared his wish that he could’ve somehow helped all the kids who couldn't be saved.

I went looking for a ghost story, and I found the hero who inspired: THE PARAMEDIC: DEADENDERS

When Philly Paramedic Jordan Ames’ uses the new ghost-tech he invented to help two long-lost ghost kids reunite with their parents in the afterlife, he accidentally leads them into the grip of an escaped Demon, (possessing a Doctor), who needs their souls to buy his permanent freedom from the underworld.

Jordan reveals everything to his girlfriend, Detective Lexi Burke, hoping they can rescue the ghost kids together.

Jordan never expected to be killed by the Demon-Doctor. Jordan takes his last breath in Lexi’s arms.

Using Jordan's ghost-tech, Lexi is able to see him as a ghost. She witnesses Jordan learn about his supernatural origin, he's a Nephilim (his Mother, who he can’t remember, was a Fallen Angel). Even as a ghost, Jordan has incredible abilities. He’s got one last chance to stop the Demon-Doctor. With Lexi’s help they must break into the Cathedral of St. Peter’s Secret Library, find the last existing Guardian Sword, and extract its phantom spirit.

Jordan wields the phantom sword in an epic battle against the Demon-Doctor and ultimately delivers the Demon back to hell.

Jordan’s ghost is restored to human form as a Soul Guardian. Together, Jordan and Lexi are responsible for safeguarding lost souls from demonic harm, helping them resolve unfinished business, and guiding them into the light.

What could possibly go wrong...

THE PARAMEDIC: DEADENDERS Won 2nd Place Best Screenplay, at Screamfest LA. (as THE SERAPHIM), in 2005. Screamfest LA was co-founded by Producer, Rachel Belofsky and the legendary Stan Winston.

Quarterfinalist, ScreenCraft Sci-Fi & Fantasy Screenwriting Competition 2021 (TUTTLESON'S GHOSTS)

Screamfest 2nd Place Winner (as THE SERAPHIM). 2005

Schemers Entertainment, Manager, David Binns, wrote: “I enjoy a good Amblin-esque, GHOSTBUSTERS-style, horror feature. Specter Vision (aka The Paramedic: Deadenders) is a great representation of your voice, while also showing your cross-genre range.”

WHY ME - Growing-up just outside of Philadelphia, I needed my wild imagination to create fun & mayhem. It got me into a lot of trouble though, like that time, when I was 10 and I stole my parents' car to take my little sister for ice-cream. (we made it as far as the neighbor’s front yard); or when I launched myself down a steep, busy street in a plywood go-cart with no brakes; or, after setting out on my own at 17, my two summers as an amateur stock car driver.

Life’s misadventures led me to discover my brand: Heartfelt Dramedy, for Features and Series, about misfits struggling to become who they were always meant to be.

I was the Lead Graphic Designer for multiple Feature and Television projects. I fell in love with storytelling, trained with Blake Snyder then with Jen Grisanti, and became an Amazon Studios Best Screenplay Competition Semi-Finalist. Was short-listed in both the NBC and ABC TV Writers Showcases, and so much more.
