I think there is tremendous horror potential in America's history with slavery and I haven't really seen that portrayed much so kudos to you for using this subject matter.
The biggest problem though here in my opinion is the exposition. Yes, viewers need to know what's going on but it was so matter-of-factly in this story that it kind of loses the horror element. Horror isn't just death and destruction, it's also the fear of the unknown. It's every horror writer's delicate balancing act of how much of the story to reveal while keeping things scary.
