HORRORHOUND UNDERGROUND

We are excited to introduce HorrorHound Underground, a new vendor experience that occurs exclusively at our Spring HHW events.

HorrorHound Underground will be located on the first floor of the Sharonville Convention Center, inside the Mask-Fest Ballroom, just around the corner from the HorrorHound Film Festival screening room and the Food Court. While Mask-Fest will continue as a Fall-only event, HorrorHound Underground takes over this space every Spring.

What is HorrorHound Underground?
HorrorHound Underground is designed as a curated “Vendor Lounge” experience, created specifically for newer vendors, artists, and immersive concepts. Attendees will be able to shop while films, including classic Grindhouse and Drive-In movies, play throughout the weekend within the vending area.

The space will feature comfortable seating, cocktail areas, and a variety of unique vendor setups, including interactive fan experiences and photo opportunities.

Examples of the type of concepts we welcome include: Lenora’s Midnight Rental, where our hostess brings a nostalgic video store experience to life.

The goal of HorrorHound Underground is to continuously evolve, offering fresh, memorable, and unexpected experiences with every show.
