This past May all of us Halloween Jetsetters: Dani, Marie, Wendy, Brandi and Kristen attended the 2010 National Halloween Convention in King of Prussia, Pa.
Shamefully, we did not remember to get a picture of all of us together but we did have an amazing time!
What is so great about the NHC show is that male or female, Halloween housewife or die hard gore lover you will love this show. It is all encompassing of Halloween. A remarkable point is how the owners set this con up in sections of Halloween: Props, Gore, Animatronics, Collectibles and more. It has a great feel and flow and allows theme specific buyers/collectors to hone in on what they deem must have.
Please enjoy this picture diary of this world class 3 day event from my view of personal favs.
Here is me wearing the Halloween Queen Crown Miss Marie Patterson gave and receiving an awesome gift-The Art of Tim Burton Book!
