We attended the HorrorHound Weekend of Horrors from November 20-22 in Cincinnati, OH. The weekend featured an all-star cast of horror celebrities, including horror host Elvira, Tom Atkins from Creepshow and Night of the Creeps, Gunnar Hansen (aka Leatherface) and Quinn Lord from Trick R Treat, and many more.

We had a creepy screening on Saturday the 21st. The screening went well, the audience was great, and we would like to thank everyone who checked it out.

We ran into some friends from Dark Carnival Film Festival. They helped the weekend run smoothly.

HorrorHound screened scary films all weekend. We had already seen a few. Shellter scarred the audience with its brand of brutal, intense horror. The Landlord scared up a slew of laughs. And Sculpture grossed out audiences with genital mutilation and sick artistic creations.

We hung out with Scultpure star Marv Blauvelt. He gave us a sneak peak of "Hypochondriac" from the upcoming anthology horror film "Psycho Street". "Hypochondriac" stars Marv, Alan Rowe Kelly, and many others in a violent, funny, over-the-top tale. For more info on "Psycho Street", check out this Fangoria article

Scaring up some fun with Dr. Ivan Cryptosis

We ran into Dr. Ivan Cryptosis, a terrifyingly terrific horror host from beyond the grave. Rumor has it that he has been seen creeping around the crypts of Wisconsin.

We met the cadaverous characters from Movie Fan House podcast. They are a fun bunch of horror lovers. They did a podcast about the weekend, including a review of Drive-In Horrorshow. Listen to the podcast

It was an incredible weekend full of horror fun. Thanks to everyone at HorrorHound who made it happen.
