Texas Frightmare Weekend 2014: Introduction

Texas Frightmare Weekend 2014 - booth front

Five years of attendance, and I thought we were ready for Texas Frightmare Weekend 2014. We’d been through rough times and good times with the Frightmare crew, and figured that we had a fairly good idea of the crowds and the interests inherent in those crowds. Well, those crowds surprised all of us. Not only is this the biggest horror convention I’ve ever attended, but it’s easily the largest media convention I’ve ever seen, and it’s definitely giving Dragon*Con and the San Diego Comic Con some much-needed competition. And the sheer variety of that crowd? Off the scale. It’s times like these that I wish I knew more languages, because I desperately needed a bit more fluency in French, Russian, Japanese, and Portuguese that weekend. Yeah, it was like that.
