Horror Conventions with Dave K
Special guest, Dave K’s no stranger to horror conventions, so THE LAST KNOCK decided to sit with the man to talk about how they’ve changes, what fans should look out for, and what organizers can do to best honor guests and to entice fans.
We’ll look at defunct horror conventions, like Horrorfind and Parafest (US only), how Monster Mania, Dragon Con, and Chiller Theatre have outgrown their respective venues, and how Walker Stalker and Spooky Empire get it right. We’ll also discuss new horror conventions, like Tampa Bay Screams.
Right from the show floor, we’ll talk about our best and worst moments, including the stars we’ve met, and the stars we feel for the most.
Before you embark on your next horror conventions excursion, take in some of our tips for a better experience.
Don’t forget to let us know what your favorite horror conventions are so we can plan our own trips to a creepy venue near you!
