Famous Monsters Halloween Convention

Famous Monsters is a pioneer of the horror, sci-fi, and fantasy industries. In fact, it started out nearly 60 years ago as a humble, B-movie-focused magazine and has since branched off to podcasts, conventions, and hundreds of fanzines. So who better to host a Halloween convention?

The Famous Monsters Halloween Convention, running October 27–29, 2017, features meet-and-greets with actors from Hellraiser, Dawn of the Dead, and Gremlins, among other films. It even hosts actors from the first IT (1990), reminiscing about their time with the original Pennywise the Dancing Clown played by the beloved Tim Curry. During the convention, guests (dressed in their most elaborate and shocking monster gear) hobnob with stars and behind-the-scenes crew while vendors and artists sell books, exclusive cover art, and horror-movie collectibles.

Check out some of the convention’s featured attractions:

• Hall of the Dead Experience: This project pays tribute to George A Romero, creator of the Living Dead movies, through panels and a flesh-eating zombie experience.

• The Rocky Horror Show: Live: Unlike the commonly lip-synched Rocky Horror productions these days, this rendition is a live-sung version of the cult-classic musical.

• House of Voodoo: This attraction transports guests to a house of horrors straight out of the murky swamps of Louisiana—a place where dark magic steals souls and elicits bloodcurdling screams.

• Napa Ghost Tours: Guests explore the paranormal history of Napa Valley and surrounding California, taking a peek at haunted dolls and ouija boards, not to mention a reenactment of the public hanging of 19th-century serial killer Billy Rowe.
