Meet
and Greet our Guests : Friday 9:00PM
Robert E. Brown
Monster Comics Mayhem!
A look into the weird worlds of comic book horror.
Join
Rob and attending guests as we peer into those dark crevasses of weird
comic book horror and discuss the odd elements, and the creators
themselves, that make these stories exceptionally horrific.
Creepy Magazine, Errie, Tales of the Zombie, Dracula Lives!, Monster
World, Tales From The Crypt, and much more will be dragged from the
dark.
Bring YOUR favorite terror tale!
!Shock Theatre Reanimated!
Remember those late Saturday night antics
with Chattanooga's own horror hosts, Dr. Shock and Dingbat? Do you
recall Nurse Goodbody? How about The Dragon Lady? (what then-healthy
young man doesn't?)
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Join HallowCon and BJ
Darnell in this horrific hour as we take a look back at a long running
favorite... Shock Theatre! Shock Theatre ran from 1968-1975 on WTVC-TV
and was considered a fan favorite during its rein. Tommy Reynolds,
WTVC-TV's then-program director, and Dan East (the genius behind the
puppet, Dingbat) entertained many a date night with their
tongue-in-cheek humor and will forever burn bright in the memories of
long WTVC-TV viewers.
Bring your memorable tales with you, or the scream you hear... may be
your OWN!
Joe Dickerson
Gone and Nearly Forgotten
We are all familiar with
Edgar Allen Poe, Bram Stoker, and H. P. Lovecraft, but there are many
other authors whom have faded into veritable obscurity. Join Joe
Dickerson of Aberrant Dreams as he introduces some of the lesser known
horror writers of the past, many delving into familiar topics long
before some of the other well known authors.
The Wierd Tales Big Three
Have we ever thought about
how H. P. Lovecraft's, Robert E. Howard's, and Clark Ashton
Smith's writing evolved over time and what makes them popular even
today. Join Joe Dickerson of Aberrant Dreams in this timeline
study of
the of the works of the greatest authors of weird fiction and their
tragic ends.

Duct Tape Costuming.
JoeDog, formerly of TPIT,
talks about the sticky stuff, Duct Tape.
Joe will again teach a few
tricks to "build" a costume from the force that binds the universe;

Another attempt will be
