On Saturday, September 18 there will be a monster costume ball in the evening after the dealer room closes (time TBA).  Admission is free with the purchase of a weekend or Friday/Saturday day pass ($5 cover at the door without a convention admission).  Come as your favorite zombie, vampire, werewolf, mummy or other horror character – or just be yourself.  The ball will feature a cash bar, DJ, costume contest and silent auction to benefit United Cerebral Palsy and The Epilepsy Foundation.  Anyone wishing to donate items for the auction should contact info@horrorrealmcon.com. 

There’s still time to take advantage of vendor tables and advanced ticket purchase at a discount – prices are good through March 31.  Please visit the convention web site at www.horrorrealmcon.com for information.
