And now, more about the show!!!
Welcome to our sprawling Halloween Market, Steampunk Festival, and Oddities Expo — a grand rumbustification of the strange, the unusual, the eccentric, the spooky, the magical (and magickal!), the unexpected, the wondrous, and the inspired! Here, creators artists, makers, and family businesses of the Halloween, Steampunk, Fantasy, and Otherwise Odd come together to offer their most splendid and curious wares.
But that’s just the beginning. (Oh, and don’t forget the Haunted House! )
We’re also home to a cavalcade of extraordinary performances — from the delightfully enchanting to the downright danceable — brought to you by some of the most captivating talents of the Autumn season. Chris Cyanide, Mr. Fang & The Darktones, The End Times – as well as authors like D.L. Carter, artists like Vini Whipple, speakers like Ed Bishop, and other guests! Be sure to explore our many features; we pride ourselves on being an extravaganza that outpaces even your wildest Halloween dreams.
And if you truly want to immerse yourself, why not stay for the whole weekend? Our event is hosted at a traditional Catskills Resort, where you can experience the haunting beauty of upstate New York at the spookiest time of year. Rooms are available — but they won’t last long!
