boxes Ghosts of Albion  

Christopher Golden, Amber Benson and the BBC teamed up to create a horror series called Ghosts of Albion. On the death of their grandfather, a famed stage magician, a brother and sister discover that not all of the old man's magic was performed on a stage. The siblings find themselves the inheritors of an extraordinary legacy, and must bear the burden and the sorcerous power that makes them the mystical guardians of early 19th century England.

The second Ghosts of Albion novel, WITCHERY, was released at the end of September 2006. Before you can save Albion, you must destroy the poison in its black heart. William and Tamara Swift's newfound sorcerous powers as Protectors of Albion pale before the demonic forces threatening Britannia. But William and Tamara have formidable allies in Lord Byron, Queen Bodicea, and Lord Admiral Nelson England's noble, notorious Ghosts of Albion.

boxes Lovers, Liars and Lunatics

Amber's second independent feature film, Lovers, Liars, and Lunatics, is now available.

In this convoluted story of lust, deception and accidental murder, we meet a philandering patriarch, his neurotic wife, their punk wannabe teenage son GUNNER, and their sexually ambiguous older son -- and see first-hand the real meaning of "family dysfunction."

Check out the film's trailer at MySpace.

boxes Chance

Amber wrote, directed, produced and starred in her own independent film, Chance. In 2001, while the movie was being filmed, fans contributed to the fundraiser with all proceeds going towards the making of the film. In 2004, Benson Entertainment signed a distribution contract for Chance. In 2005, the theatrical release of Chance was held in Fort Lauderdale.

Benson Entertainment has restocked Chance in DVD NTSC (US). Place your order for the format of your choice at the site.
