Another installment of a stellar horror convention, from my friend Ryan Scott Weber and his great team of show builders and dedicated volunteer staff, this time they aren’t at the Showboat rather a new location in Edison, NJ, at the New Jersey Convention and Exposition Center for August 18 to 20th.

I have always mentioned the importance of attending a convention to meet other horror fans, enjoying the outing and experience however, there is a more important reason, as looming black skies lie ahead perhaps not for us but our children and the future generation of horror fans.

There’s a Fright Night Reunion

Chris Sarandon now while most in attendance likely to be getting autographs on a Fright Night item, be forewarned he has one of the most detailed pricing lists
Why do I mention this to survive an event you need to know your budget.
Then filling out the reunion is Amanda Bearse, Dorothy Fielding (who also had the famous line in Jaws… “SHARK!” – this is her first show ever, give her a warm reception Horror Fans).

Then William Ragsdale, Stephen Geoffreys and Jonathan Stark … a total of six – WOW! So, a full sweep for all 6 autographs is $280, not too bad and besides that increases the value of the item!

Who else is there to see the People Under the Stairs Reunion!

Kelly Jo Minter (who starred in Nightmare on Elm Street 5 and low-budget classic Popcorn [1991] so depending on preference you might consider at least 2-autographs for her),
Yan Birch, Brandon Adams, and Sean Whalen, this a great treat, for a film that is now a cult classic.

New Jersey Horror Con is presenting a few small reunions

REMEMBER TO…

Visit the vendors, they are there to showcase their talents, some mask builders, prop makers, twisted creations, also be sure to look at the independent filmmaker tables supporting their work is very important to the genre, after all they could be the next Damien Leone featuring something eye-popping like Terrifier.
The biggest twist ending in horror b-movie history, Sleepaway Camp,
the mainstay star Felissa Rose, such a wonderful person to meet, I personally remember the chance I had to see her, so many conventions I missed her because I was doing my job
Then one Sunday at this convention finally the stars aligned and had wonderfully meeting.
She’s so friendly with each of her fans!

FELISSA ROSE, she has graced this event so many times in the past and is here once again
she cherishes every moment that she can and gives serious time to every fan of hers that comes to her table.
Sleepaway Camp [1983], Victor Crowley[2017], 2 Jennifer [2016] My Uncle John is a Zombie [2016] which was written, directed, starred by JOHN RUSSO; 1983 – 2000 = 17
