Our First Horror Convention: A Journey into the Unknown
Now that the dust has settled from our first two horror conventions, we're excited to share our experiences with you!
We kicked things off with Days of the Dead AZ at the end of June. This event was the perfect "first show" for us—not too busy, allowing us to ease into the convention scene without feeling overwhelmed by the crowds. As someone with a bit of social anxiety, this was an ideal setting for our 1st experience.
Introducing our original items to fellow horror fans was an absolute blast! Watching people interact with pieces we've personally designed and created was both thrilling and nerve-wracking "Will they like it? Will they hate it?". It can make you second-guess your passion project, but everyone was so cool and seemed to appreciate what we had to offer. The attendees were amazing, and the fellow vendors we spent the weekend with were incredibly talented and friendly, making us feel welcomed into the local horror community.
Some of our big sellers at the Days of the Dead show were the "I Love Apples" Dahmer tee and our small Thriller 3D effect acrylic images. We were exhausted after our first show, but there was no time to rest—we had just two weeks to prepare for our next event!
Stay tuned as we continue to bring you unique horror-themed creations and share more of our journey.
