Danielle Grimm
Director/Writer/Creator
Although Danielle Grimm isn’t related to the actual “Brothers Grimm,” that hasn’t stopped her from writing her heart out. Despite having a mild reading and learning disorder as a kid, her determination to become a prolific writer never wavered. With the encouragement of her friends, teachers, and family, Danielle is determined to pursue her creative passions. Before Danielle graduated from high school, she wrote and pitched novels at Writer Conferences, networking with many agents and publishing houses from Harper Collins, Simon and Shuster, and Amazon Publishing. She also put together table reads of scripts she wrote, including an entire season of her original series, The Demoni’s–selected for the Southern Horror Film Festival.Together with her Award-Winning Acting Coach/Screenwriter/Actress mother, Kelley Cody-Grimm, and her sister Amber Grimm, they have written a catalog of over 160 monologues for the Demo program at Acting Out Studios. And most recently, Danielle has also received Quarter-Finalist at Atlanta Screenplay Award for one of her scripts, Acid World.
Statement
I first came up with the concept of The Demoni’s over my love for old 1960’s movies and TV shows, like the Addams family and Dark Shadows. Part of me wanted to make this project into a darker version of The Addams Family, like Riverdale and The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina but developed the series into something more experimental, so The Demoni’s was born.
I’ve always been a fan of horror, serial killers, and crime dramas. After many readthroughs of the Pilot and the first season, the positive feedback from actors and festivals made me want to pursue this project even more. But what interests me the most is the debate the subject matter brings on, making readers question the morality of killing, the concept of justice, and the nature of evil.
