39 Escalones transforms the former Melitón Studios in Navarra into Midnight Fear Factory, a project for genre film production

Midnight Fear Factory is a new genre film production studio in Navarra, driven by 39 Escalones Films and located in the former Melitón Studios at the Lekaroz Business Campus. It will focus on producing horror, science fiction, and suspense films, with plans to create up to 12 titles annually starting in 2025. Additionally, it will feature an audiovisual R&D laboratory and a Fast TV channel dedicated to the genre.

The project is a public-private collaboration supported by the Government of Navarra and entities such as Nasuvinsa and Sodena. Furthermore, Navarra has improved its tax incentives for audiovisual productions, which can reach up to a 50% deduction for certain projects, including animation, short films, debut films, movies in Basque, and those directed by women.
