ST. LOUIS, MO<\/strong> \u2013 Horror fans, get ready. A brand-new horror experience is coming to St. Louis as St. Louis Horror Con<\/strong> brings together celebrity guests, unique vendors, cosplay, photo opportunities, and a full weekend celebrating everything fans love about the horror genre for the ENTIRE FAMILY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event will give fans the chance to meet stars from some of their favorite horror films and franchises, get autographs, take professional photo ops, shop a huge selection of horror and pop culture vendors, and experience a weekend built around the horror community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We wanted to create more than just a place where you walk through, buy something, and leave,” said event organizer Matt Grisham. “Our goal has always been to create an experience where fans can make memories with their entire family. Whether it’s meeting a celebrity you grew up watching, finding that perfect item from a vendor, or just spending the weekend surrounded by people who love the same things you do, that’s what these events are about.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

St. Louis Horror Con is produced by the team behind successful fan events including Evansville Horror Con, Nashville Horror Con, and Raptor Con. The team is known for creating fan-focused conventions that combine big-name celebrity appearances with a fun and welcoming atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fans can expect a weekend packed with:
\u2022 Celebrity guest appearances
\u2022 Autograph and photo opportunities
\u2022 Horror and pop culture vendors
\u2022 Cosplay and fan experiences
\u2022 Panels, activities, and more surprises<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are excited to bring this style of show to St. Louis,” added Grisham. “The horror community is one of the most passionate fan bases out there, and we can’t wait to give St. Louis an event they can call their own.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
