CONjuration 2016




Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia...if you grew up reading these books (or any other fantasy book that transports you to magical new worlds), then you would definitely enjoy going to CONjuration Con in Atlanta, GA!!  The primary theme that you will see at CONjuration is Harry Potter, but it is a con for all things magical and there are an abundance of things to do, no matter what fantasy realm your fanhood is in!

This was the third year of CONjuration and my third year of attendance (check out my coverage of year 1 here and here, and year 2 here).  Each year the con has grown and grown (this year, looking at the programming guide was almost overwhelming because of how many options there were!), but without sacrificing its charm or focus on the fans.  Chris and Angela Seckinger (the headmasters of CONjuration) do an amazing job at making everyone there feel like family.  So, a tremendous thanks goes out to Chris and Angela (and everyone else on their team) for their countless hours of hard work throughout the year to put on such an amazing con!!
CONjuration - 2016
There is no way that my coverage of the con will fully show how awesome it is, but hopefully it does justice in at least providing a snippet of how much there was to do and how great everyone there was!  The photos have been uploaded to Facebook as well as Flickr, the podcast is below, and the video is in the works.  So, join me and Adam (as well as interviews from the con with several attendees, vendors, and guests) as we discuss our time at CONjuration and our love of the fantasy genre!

Frightening Ass Film Festival 6





Closing out my Halloween Movie Month 2016 (a bit late, obviously) is my coverage of the Frightening Ass Film Festival 6 in Chattanooga, TN.  Even though I was not able to put out daily reviews during October for the horror movies that I saw, I certainly saw an abundance of horror during October and the Frightening Ass Film Fest was an awesome conclusion to a month of great horror movies!!  So, join me and Daniel (from Mass Listeria Podcast) as we discuss the numerous films we saw that day, including one of my favorites of the year - Beyond the Gates.  And a huge special thanks to Chris Dortch for putting on such an awesome horror film fest!!
