November 13-15, 2015 is going to be a weekend for the ages for horror fans in the Pacific Northwest as the first ever Living Dead Horror Convention takes over the Oregon Convention Center in downtown Portland, OR. The convention is shaping up to be a huge one with nearly 100 vendors and a wide range of guests across multiple horror platforms scheduled to be in attendance, along with screenings and after parties.
More than just a film convention, Living Dead Con stays true to the brand’s spirit of welcoming and promoting everyone in the horror culture/community from writers to musicians and artists to actors. This is the first of many Living Dead Conventions that will takes place annually in Portland, OR, and right off the bat we are bringing in some of the most obscure and the most sought after appearances, live bands, horror burlesque, oddities, nonstop film screenings, celebrity led workshops, personalized VIP parties, and panels from authors, actors, directors and makeup artists.
The minds behind the convention are the creator and owner of the horror lifestyle/culture magazine Living Dead Magazine, Deanna Uutela and NW horror writer and sales director James R. Beach.
The impressive list of guests, which is subject to change, includes Barbara Steele, Adrienne King, Ari Lehman, Lisa Marie, John Dugan and a whole heck of a lot more. Vendors include Something Weird, Cult Classic Posters and one of my favorite companies to ever exist in Vinegar Syndrome, just to name a few.
