I attended Scarefest here in Lexington again this year. In general, I really enjoy this horror/paranormal convention.
I have to say that I think the crowd was smaller this year. There was still a good crowd and all, but I know I have seen more people show up in previous years. I know that this year, Scarefest was the same weekend as the Mothman Festival. I am sure that affect some attendance.
I went with a friend and we just kind of checked things out. I did find some very cool original art vendors here... In fact, I think that is mostly what I went for.
I met Pizzaface at the Comic Con last year and picked up some of her pins and stickers. I bought a few more this year, as she has really done some nice stuff. Most of her art is inspired by the old Halloween masks you would wear as a kid! Check out her art here!
Right next to her was the duo Beast Wreck. I also picked up several pins and stickers from them... many of which had a vintage Halloween feel. They also had some odd mash-up type pins and stickers.
I FINALLY picked up my very own Sasquatch action figure from CreatuReplica. Glad to see that these were still available.
Lastly, I bought a couple of books from author Richard Estep. Richard has written several books on haunted places. I am sure I will mention them when I finish each one. Anyway, I have had some real hit or miss experiences with ghost and haunted books (some are terrible and involve no actual research) but after talking to Richard briefly, I felt confident picking up a couple of books.
Anyway, here are a few photos I took while I was there!
