Sounds like an improvement on Monsterpalooza to me, especially in regards to price of admission, but also for the tattoos and costume contests. I see quite a few differences in the 2. No offense to Monsterpalooza (I attend every year).
I’ve been attending Monsterpalooza since 2009 and they started at $20. They’ve been around for a long time and I think it took them like 5 years to increase their price which to me is fair. and in my opinion they deliver the highest of quality and brought uniqueness back to conventions. No matter what they did it first. Not sure what else Sinister Creature Con show has to offer, but who knows how large this show will even be? Maybe the $20 for the weekend is because the facility is small? There is a lot of information still missing that I don’t think is realized…plus, you can’t say this is a unique concept, since in reality, what is described is monsterpalooza. plus monsterpalooza has done a costume contest for their fall shows. only thing they don’t do is tattoos on sight but thats fine with me lol.
The folks who run Monsterpalooza definitely have a lot to be proud of. They put on a great show. Sinister Creature Con will undoubtedly be a much smaller, more intimate event. At this point, it’s all just conjecture, but I’m excited to see how it goes!
Much like Monsterpalooza but, gasp, in a completely different part of the state that NEVER has events like this.
There’s a message on Twisted Terror’s Facebook page saying that, due to ownership and staff changes, 2014 was their last year.
I always look forward to new events but am always disappointed when new events don’t come up with “new.” I’ll probably check the show out i live only 3 hours away,
Yeah, $20 for a 2 day con is very motivating. I guess we’ll just have to wait an see how it measures up. I have seen the Sacramento Horror Film Festival so I can attest that Tim knows how to get things done, so I have high hopes.
