It was a great event and the horror community in Seattle are a great group of folks. Some highlights from the event are as follows: First of all, there is <a title=\"Night Zero\" href=\"http:\/\/nightzero.com\" target=\"_blank\">Night Zero<\/a>. Night Zero is a photographic novel based in Seattle that is created with high dynamic range photography. Next, there were plenty of horror film greats ranging from <a title=\"Ken Foree\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0286010\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ken Foree<\/a> (<em>Dawn of the Dead<\/em> and my favorite <em>From Beyond<\/em>) to <a title=\"Michael Berryman\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0077720\/\" target=\"_blank\">Michael Berryman<\/a> (<em>The Hills Have Eyes<\/em>, <em>Weird Science<\/em>). Panels focused on films like Phantasm and The Fog, but the crew from <a title=\"Field of Screams\" href=\"http:\/\/www.stockerfarms.com\/page9803.asp\" target=\"_blank\">Field of Screams<\/a>, Washington&#8217;s premiere haunted attraction, were also on hand to expose their world of haunting. Finally, evening events such as a completely improvised horror movie and the Crypticon Costume Contest made nightfall more fun than creepy. Want to see more?
