“The National Haunters Convention is like a huge reunion…. We offer many of the features of a large haunt convention without the large bite out of your budget. If you are a Professional or Amateur haunter, a Halloween home or yard haunter, or just plan the coolest Halloween parties among all your friends, then this convention is for you. [W]e welcome everyone who is into Goth, horror movies, classic movies, animatronics, robots, makeup, prop building, airbrushing, or just plain anything to do with Halloween to attend. Our seminars are top notch, and you will find vendors that have products and services that will amaze you.
There are NO Age restrictions to the Convention Show Floor (Children are invited). However, please keep in mind this is a Halloween and Horror Show. Therefore, you will see lots of props and products that are both very bloody, gory, and disturbing, so we wouldn’t recommend bringing a 4 year old child, for example (unless his name is Chucky).”
