MONSTER BASH
WINTERFEST 2000

SCARY MONSTER MEMORIES

The Monster Bash Winterfest in 2000 featured guests Forrest J Ackerman, Tom Savini, Conrad Brooks, Robert Tinnell, David "The Rock" Nelson, Carpathian and others!

This show was a scaled back, easy going, old-fashioned kind of convention. A total dedication to the man that made it all happen in the 1960's & 1970's - Forrest J Ackerman. It included a live musical performance to a showing of the 1925 PHANTOM OF THE OPERA with Lon Chaney. Kevin Slick brought the haunted house down with his new score for the film that he played live on keyboards.

Below photos courtesty of the Spisak's from Kentucky and Tony Bertram of The Journal of Dark Romantism.

Ken and Dan from Zanol's Zombie Hut!
They were rockin' the Bash Dealer room with unbelielable cool ghoul deals.
Things like the book THE FILMS OF BORIS KARLOFF for $5 and that was the tip
of the iceberg. They were the talk of the Dealer room....
great prices and great stuff!
