Salem Occultist was a 22-minute-long film from 2016, which was directed by Alexander Roman. It is less a story and more an introduction to the character of Anton Bryson (Alexander Roman), which comprises of a prologue background (and post-credit background piece) and two ‘consultations’.
The introduction shows mostly establishing film and graphics as a voiceover from the Salem witch trials condemns the three Bryson sisters to death. The last to die, Cora (Paula Kinch), tells her brother Anton that her spell will protect him from his curse – for a while at least – but he is doomed to be a vampire. However, the spell will ensure he inherits her powers also.

Forward in time and Anton is now a consulting occultist. The first client we see is Irena (Sarah Biehler), who needs help escaping from an abusive relationship. The second client is Thomas (Alexander Roman), sent to Anton by the mysterious Baroness (Sarah Alvarez). Thomas rarely takes male clients but listens to his story, one of a night of passion with a mysterious Greek man who was gone in the morning but left Thomas bitten and scratched and susceptible to the moon.
How does Anton deal with these clients? You can check that on demand, from Vimeo.
