British Independent Productions
Welcome to The Horror Factory - Where nightmares are built.
Purpose-designed for horror production, The Horror Factory delivers cinematic scale at a fraction of traditional studio costs. This is not just a space to shoot — it’s a complete creative ecosystem built to bring dark visions to life.
From our fully equipped in-house set construction workshop and extensive prop store to a curated catalogue of ready-to-shoot locations, everything is under one roof. We even have a highly experienced stunt team in residence as well as industry standard lighting, camera, and grip equipment on hand 24/7, 365 days a year — because inspiration doesn’t keep office hours.
Four adaptable studio spaces provide the backbone for productions, supported by office space, dedicated costume, hair and make-up facilities, kitchen amenities, showers, and free on-site parking. A deep pool of skilled local crew — all within an hour of the studio — ensures productions can scale quickly and efficiently.
Strategically located in Banbury, just off Junction 11 of the M40 between London and Birmingham, The Horror Factory combines accessibility with creative focus. Banbury railway station is a short walk away, with direct services to London Marylebone in just 55 minutes.
- Build it. Shoot it. Terrify!
