Vaya con Dios.

Don't ya just wanna hug 'em all?

Famous horror scenes turned into pulp art? Classic! Nice work, Dan Litzinger!

Oh look, he brought us a surprise!

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

I want that Ideal JAWS game, but it's not a $800 kind of want.

Good parenting.

Always like seeing the Southland Ghostbusters guys and their Terror Dog model.
Also, they gave me a mini can o' Ecto Plazm!

The 13th Room put on a nice mini escape experience called "The Cemetery" that day.

Nice that they had a lil' Halloween craft tables area for child attendees to enjoy.

I think they spotted me.

Slender Man looks so poetic here, doesn't he?

This Immortal Masks creation just makes me want to see Street Sharks have a comeback.

Is it getting hot in here?

Oh I get it... Knott's Scary Farm fattened us up with ice cream to feed us to their giant witch.

Das Machina never disappoints with their plasma lamp laboratory creations!

Buster Balloon creats some seriously impressive balloon sculptures.

First time seeing the new Mopeez line of horror plush toys by Funko. Pretty adorable.

Sci-Fi and Horror toys galore!

Now there's a basket full o' fun.

Live demonstrations on how to create spooky sculptures with styrofoam from Hot Wire Foam Factory.

Haunters on stilts are always a welcome sight, even when one wants to belt you with a mallet.

No thanks... you're creepin' on your own just fine without me.

Anyone wanna take her to prom?

How all infants will look in the future.

Didn't catch his name, but this guy was playing some nice ambient horror music while we perused the art.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Had to see those kittens up for adoption one more time before I left.
I wanted them ALL!

I'm really glad Halloween and horror fans in SoCal have so many events they can check out before Halloween season even begins. Midsummer Scream is a welcome addition to the pack, and if you're anywhere near Long Beach, I highly recommend checking it out when they likely return next summer. Big thanks again to the Midsummer Scream staff for inviting us to cover the festivities. Hope to see ya in 2017, Midsummer Scream!
