GOLD WEEKEND PACKAGES
They are the most "Frightfully Fun" way to attend all three days. You'll be the envy of all your fiends when you sign up for this devilishly delightful deal! There's no better bargain in horror entertainment. HERE are the benefits that you get when you join our Golden (Ticket) Army:

1. The very best seating reserved for you throughout ALL THREE DAYS! It's your seat, come and go, all day, all weekend in our main theatre where all the guests appear and presentations are done!

2. Complimentary in-person autographs from the majority of our major celebrity guests. Without a doubt the value of the autographs you receive will be more than the cost of the entire package!

3. First to get autographs for signings that are done row by row, since you are in the front rows!

4. Complimentary admission to Fangoria's Fiendish SATURDAY EVENING Celebrity Bash. We'll have lots of horror celebrities dropping by. Limited attendance: come ready to party! These festivities are ALWAYS the hit of the weekend!

5. Wristband entrance so after you get set you don't have to wait anymore to get in.

6. Pre-Registration for Gold Weekend Patrons: we get you set with your credentials before anyone else! This is a particularly cool benefit since the convention is so monstrously huge!

7. FIRST CRACK at FANGO SWAG! There's no better place in the convention world to pick up free goodies than Fango and the movie studios go all out to make sure your ravenous freebie appetite is fulfilled! And, as our illustrious GOLD PATRONS, you get first "bite" at these delights when you pre-register! Certainly a benefit worth howling about!

8. Complimentary reserved seating to Friday Night's Entertainment Event.

Note: Particular events and benefits are subject to change.

AUTOGRAPH TICKETS

With all the fake autographs out there on on-line auction sites this is the absolute best way to know that your autograph is real! Non-rushed hand signed signatures: bring your item to be signed (or buy a photo or collectible at the event if you prefer) and you'll get your item signed in person! Many of the autographs are included in our Gold and Silver Weekend Packages but if you want more than one signature of a celebrity (or you are not in one of the package deals) you should purchase these autograph tickets. If you are a package holder with the autographs included and also buy more below you will get ALL your items signed at the same time.

PHOTO OPS

What's a PHOTO OP like?
Check out these photo ops where fans got the chance to get a pic with SUPERNATURAL star JARED PADALECKI

The fantastic opportunity to have a full color gorgeous 8 by 10 photograph of yourself with your fave celebrity. An awesome souvenir! And, most of the photo ops will be available for pick up during the weekend (usually the next day or late that day depending).
