Horror fans, this is your official warning… HorrorHound Weekend is ALMOST here!

March 20th through the 22nd, 2026, HorrorHound Weekend takes over Cincinnati and transforms it into a three day celebration of everything we love about the genre.

This is not just a convention. This is an experience.

The guest list always delivers heavy hitters from film and television. Legends. Fan favorites. Icons who helped shape the nightmares we grew up on. Autographs, photo ops, panels, and once in a lifetime moments that you will be talking about long after the weekend ends.

Then there is the vendor hall.

Rows upon rows of horror collectibles, original art, rare finds, handmade pieces, apparel, physical media, and the kind of merchandise you did not even know you needed until you see it. Whether you are hunting for vintage treasures or the newest indie creations, HorrorHound Weekend is a horror shopper’s paradise.

Whether you are hunting for vintage treasures or the newest indie creations, HorrorHound Weekend is a horror shopper’s paradise.

And let’s talk about the heart of it all, the HorrorHound Film Festival.

This is where the future of horror lives.

Award winning, and award nominated, independent films from around the world screen in front of passionate fans who truly appreciate the craft. Shorts. Features. Emerging voices. Bold storytelling. It is raw, creative, and unforgettable. If you care about where horror is headed next, this is where you need to be.

Add in cosplay that will blow your mind, late night conversations with fellow fans, packed panel rooms, and that electric atmosphere you can only get when thousands of horror lovers gather under one roof, and you have a weekend that simply cannot be replicated.

HorrorHound Weekend is not something you scroll past online.

It is something you experience.

Clear your schedule. Grab your friends. Charge your phone. Bring an extra bag for the vendor hall. Cincinnati becomes the horror capital for three unforgettable days and you will not want to miss a single moment.

March 20th through the 22nd, 2026.

Be there.
