Folk horror series set in Glasgow. Full development package. Looking for co-production advice.
Hi everyone. Glasgow-based writer here, first post.
I have been developing an original six-part folk horror series called Maggie for the past several months. It is set in contemporary Govan, rooted in the real history of baby farming in 1890s Glasgow and built as a complete three-season arc with a resolved ending.
I have a full series bible, a pilot script, beat sheets for all six episodes of Series One and pitch materials. The project is already out with production companies in Scandinavia and I am actively looking for a UK co-production partner.
I am not really here looking for script feedback at this stage. What I am genuinely curious about is whether anyone has experience navigating the co-production route, particularly with Nordic companies or whether anyone has found useful ways into the UK production landscape independently? The unsolicited material policies of most UK companies make it genuinely difficult to get the right eyes on something without already knowing someone.
Happy to share pitch materials if that is useful to anyone.
Any thoughts or experience welcome.
