Some rad news has his hit for all you Chi-town dwellers, one of the preeminent horror conventions in the country, Flashback Weekend, owns the city from October 23-25. And a fresher lineup the fest could hardly attain.

Namely, such genre stalwarts as big Bob Englund (The Krueg!), Tony Todd (CANDYMAN), Lance Henricksen (PUMPKINHEAD, ALIENS), Jeanette Goldstein (NEAR DARK), and Tim Thomerson (NEAR DARK, TRANCERS) will all be on hand.

Also attending are Mercedes McNabb (HATCHET), Katharine Isabelle & Emily Perkins (GINGER SNAPS), Tim Quill (ARMY OF DARKNESS, MY NAME IS BRUCE), Christa Campbell and Kathryn Le (2001 MANIACS), David Crawford (DAWN OF THE DEAD, 1978), and more!

Englund will no doubt be plugging and signing his new memoir Hollywood Monster: A Walk Down Elm Street with the Man of Your Dreams.”

Even more exciting – NEAR DARK & GINGER SNAPS will both be screened on Friday Oct. 23rd.
