Def-Con I: The first virtual horror convention this weekend!

We are living in uncertain times, but horror fans will still be able to access favorite stars, interesting panels and plenty of swag from Def-Con I convention this weekend (March 28th and 29th). Romero Pictures and Indie Brigade host the first completely virtual horror convention featuring some of our favorite stars line Linnea Quigley, Michael Berryman, Kane Hodder, Amelia Kincade, and more. This is an interesting solution to a very real problem—here’s hoping that it is a success! 

Moving forward, here is hoping that conventions and events from now on will have options such as these. Many people in the horror community who have compromised immune systems have often been overlooked by organizers of such events. From here on in, let’s do better! For more information and (very affordable, starting at $20) tickets click here
