October = The Month of Horror 🎃👻
There’s a special time of year when our fascination with darkness and our craving for chills come alive together — October.
As Halloween approaches, the world naturally slips into a spooky mood: pumpkins glow, costumes appear, eerie decorations emerge, and horror stories — age-old companions of human imagination — take center stage once again.Why October? – The Month of Shadows
October marks a transition: bright summer days give way to the misty melancholy of autumn.
Shorter days and longer nights awaken our sense of mystery. Fog, fallen leaves, and dimly lit streets — all classic backdrops of horror literature and film — remind us of how deeply atmosphere shapes emotion.
Halloween and the Cult of Fear
Halloween grew out of the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when it was believed the veil between worlds grew thin and spirits could walk among us.
Though the tradition evolved over centuries, our fascination with ghosts, witches, and vampires endures — and October remains the perfect time for scary stories, horror films, and frightful fun.
HorrorCon & GeekCon – Where Fans Unite
This October, horror culture gets its own celebration.
At HorrorCon, part of GeekCon, fans of horror films, literature, and pop culture come together for a weekend of thrills and shared passion.
Expect:
• Horror-themed panels and discussions
• Costume contests and cosplay shows
• Stage programs and performances
• Meet & greet sessions with authors, creators, and actors
This isn’t just an event — it’s a community experience. A place where fear becomes fun, and darkness turns into connection.
Fear Feels Better Together
Horror isn’t only about fear — it’s about release. It gives us catharsis: a safe way to experience terror, knowing the monsters stay on screen or on stage.
October, Halloween, and HorrorCon offer a chance to step out of everyday life and embrace the playful side of fear.
👻 Get ready — this year, the line between darkness and light will blur… and you can be part of it.
