Our very dear friend Steve Dash (Jason in Friday The 13th Pt 2) is currently in the hospital after having his leg removed due to diabetes. Please keep Steve in your prayers. In all my years if hosting stars Steve is simply the best.
Not really sure why someone feels the need to send insults to me for postponing the show. They’d be the first to complain about the guest list, social distancing, safety protocols or reduced amount of vendors if we had a show during a pandemic.
Heartbreaking news about the passing of our good friend Sid Haig. It was truly an honor to have him
@MonsterManiaCon
so often. Sid truly appreciated his fans. Our deepest condolences to his family, friends and fans.

Just been informed that SAM RAIMI is forced to postpone his appearance
@MonsterManiaCon
due to filming. We hope to have him at one of our future shows.
Thanks to all who joined us this past weekend. My sons and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It’s been a hard 22 months since we’ve had an indoor show & we were worried you forgot about us. Huge thank you to all the stars, fans, vendors & agents who supported us again
As a horror con promoter for 16+years the most rewarding aspect for me is that we offer a 3 day escape to a world where all are welcomed, embraced & celebrated. The love shared by all knows no boundaries & collectively we even manage to save the lives of some animals in need.
Sid Haig’s wife Suzie reported today on Instagram that Sid is currently in the hospital and is asking for prayers from the fans. We hope to see Sid back on his feet soon!
Today would have been the Saturday of our last show of the year, scheduled for our beloved Hunt Valley location.
Not having the cons really hit me hard today. I could never express just how much hosting the shows mean to me.
I hope 2021 treats us much better. Miss you all 💌
Hands down my favorite guest at this weekend’s show! I’m really happy to have been the show to put this cast back together. As a Dexter fan it was a dream come true!
I desperately want to resume having
@MonsterManiaCon
again. If it takes shutting things down for a few months and having everyone wear a mask so that we can resume life as normal in the Spring, I’m all for it. We’ve limped along since March and we’re no closer to normal.
Deeply saddened by the passing of the immensely talented Scott Wilson. We were the first show he ever did and Scott often returned to us. Genuine nice guy through and through. Often invited fans to share meals with him in the hotel restaurant.

Looks like we may have found at least one place that MONSTER-MANIA will be expanding to in the near future....
Possibly signing contracts maybe as early as this week!
Every now and then being a Con promoter really is rewarding. My grandson’s favorite wrestler is the
@undertaker
& I didn’t tell him about this in advance. This afternoon I got the “Pop, I love you” phone call I knew would be coming

Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the great JOHN SAXON.
We had the honor of hosting JOHN at our Cherry Hill, NJ and also our CT show.
JOHN was a true gentleman and truly a film legend and was one of our most requested guests. It was an honor to work with him

I’ve had many shows with plenty of stars but only one invited me to his room to share a beer and say thanks. That was Roddy. Total class act. I miss him very much.
Just want to say Thank You so very much to all the stars, staff, vendors, agents, hotel staff, security & most of all the fans who made
@MonsterManiaCon
44 a huge success. My family and I sincerely appreciate you all for allowing us to do what we love so much!
Honestly disappointed that the box office for
#DoctorSleepMovie
wasn’t what was expected. We all complain that studios don’t make enough horror films but when one as good as this comes out we don’t support it enough.
THE OFFICIAL MONSTER-MANIA ONLINE STORE IS COMING!
We will be offering all things MONSTER-MANIA including some great autographed items, a full line of Official MONSTER-MANIA apparel, posters, programs, collectibles and much more from our 17 year history!
Stay tuned!
We have lost a few stars for this weekend’s show but we’re doing the best to soldier on. Brad Dourif, Catherine Hicks and Chris Sarandon have cancelled but we’re adding additional people. Please stay tuned
My grandson was in the back seat of this car last night when a tree branch fell onto it while driving on 295. Thankfully, though shaken, everyone was unharmed. As bad as 2020 has been to some, I’m thankful this didn’t turn out much worse.
IT FLOATS TO MONSTER-MANIA!
Excited to announce that WYATT OLEFF, CHOSEN JACOBS & JEREMY RAY TAYLOR will be
@MonsterManiaCon
in Cherry Hill, NJ!
#LosersClub
Soon there will be lots of news to share about the future of
@MonsterManiaCon
!
We’ve used this down time to make big plans for the future. Multiple outdoor events in various locations, additional indoor shows when the time is right. Much to look forward to!
Here is the awesome VIP Poster and Program cover created by Scott Jackson which includes the last minute addition of Erik King! All VIP ticket holders will receive this poster for free as part of your VIP ticket package.

My next door neighbor has been cutting down two large trees in his yard since 7AM. I’ve heard nothing but that for the last 6 hours.
If this goes on much longer it’s about to become the New Jersey Chainsaw Massacre
