It was a beautiful day today in Allentown, PA. A beautiful day for the Horror community to gather at Merchants Square located at 1901 S 12th Street in Allentown, PA. The event ran from 10AM to 5PM. It was a fun, relaxed event. Guests mingled with the celebrity guest and took photos, autographs and chatted about films and horror. The vendors shared the same room and each person had a different set-up. Tables filled with some of the coolest horror related items. A lot handmade by artists. There was a lot of different art and collectibles.

 

Inside Merchants Square, the stores also braced for the Horror fans and Halloween is right around the corner like Michael Myers lurking. The stores decorated and added fun items from the seventies and eighties. Decorations and signs. Everyone was accommodating and kind. The staff was helpful and answered any questions you may have thought of. The guest took time to speak with everyone.

One of the best things about this event is the Lehigh Valley hasn’t had a Horror-related event quite like this. It brought some true talent including Father Evil who is often traveling all over the country with his family as one unique character. The horror community is known for being close. These events are fun and it gives you a chance to catch up with friends, make some new friends and get to know the Lehigh Valley.

 

These events are the only place you can go and see Clowns mingling with Vampires and people who just love horror films having in-depth conversations.

Some of the stand out artists included Derrick Draws.
