Thanks to everyone who came out in 2011! This was the best Crypticon Seattle yet and we have already started working on 2012, so stay tuned!

Bill Moseley got his first film role in Alan Rudolph’s “Endangered Species.” His third role has become one of his most well known; he appeared as Chop Top in Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. His next breakout role was the maniacal Otis B. Driftwood in Rob Zombie’s directorial debut House of 1000 Corpses. In 2005, he reprised the role of Otis in the sequel The Devil’s Rejects. And that is just the start!

The awards was created by William J. Bivens of My Dementia.

His creation earned him a Pro MUD case, an internship with Doug Hudson on his next film project, and an award created by William J. Bivens of My Dementia.

Supplies used in the contest were provided by our fabulous sponsors Nightmare at Beaver Lake, Graftobain Makeup and Haunted Puget Sound.

There’s demons closing in on every side! The Seattle Thrillers performed the zombie dance from Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” music video. Each year on Oct. 23, hundreds of zombies get together to break the world record for the largest simultaneous Thriller and raise money for charity. Want to join the fun? Visit their website for more information.

Only the bravest souls are able to say they experienced it and lived to tell their tale! Six rooms were given to VIP Fright Pass haunts who made each room a ghastly experience for all who entered.

Zombie commuters swarmed the Seattle light rail on the opening night of the convention. They even made the “ABC World News!”
