The director of Obsession put a new horror short on YouTube

Curry Barker, the filmmaker known for the popular horror movie Obsession, has released a new horror short titled "Mama Bear" on YouTube. The chilling five-minute film, which can now be viewed on YouTube, is described as unnerving and graphic, making it an apt selection for those seeking a frightful Halloween treat. Barker, who penned, directed, and edited "Mama Bear," revealed the details in the video's description, which attributes the sponsorship to Windows.

The description also extends gratitude to Windows for their support. Barker has previously made an appearance on an Instagram video with a Surface laptop. Following the success of Obsession, Barker is set to release Anything but Ghosts in May 2027. The horror genre continues to thrive, with Kane Parsons' Backrooms, directed by a fellow YouTuber, proving to be a major box office draw this year. Parsons has also added a fresh episode to his Backrooms YouTube series in August.
