Falls Horror Fest 2017 show featured genre icons, special events and horror related attractions
For the second year in a row, Shock Till You Drop served as co-sponsor for the horror culture component of the massive Niagara Falls Comic Con, located on the scenic Canadian side of Niagara Falls. It was a blast, a non-stop parade of cool costumes, weird pop-culture fans, awesome celebs and amazing artists.
The Falls Horror Fest took place inside Niagara Falls Comic Con this past weekend from June 2-4, 2017, and featured over 5,000 square feet of horror exhibitors, a replica of The Munsters Koach, The Walking Dead Zombie Photo Op Experience and Bill Diamond Productions (featuring screen used and replica props from Little Shop of Horrors, Dark Crystal, Labyrinth and more).
Celebrity guests included Robert Englund (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Amanda Wyss (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Brooke Bundy (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3 & 4), Ken Kirzinger (Freddy vs. Jason), Seth Gilliam (The Walking Dead), Tara Reid (Sharknado), Danny Lloyd (The Shining), Caleb McLaughlin (Stranger Things) and Butch Patrick (The Munsters)

STYD editor Chris Alexander was there with STYD writer and Land of the Creeps podcast co-host Jessie Robbins to meet fans and moderate key panels. Canada’s premiere horror film festival Blood in the Snow was also be present, screening classic and contemporary Northern genre fare and previewing the 2017 show.
We have a bunch of fun pics from the convention floor and we’ll totally be returning next year to the Falls Horror Fest!
