267. Texas Frightmare Weekend 2026 - Day 1: Vendors, Scarah & Learning Curves

Coming to you live outside the Grand Ballroom of the Irving Convention Center, The Movies trucks along through Texas Frightmare Weekend 2026!It's Day 2, Saturday, as I record this, but we're gonna be talking about Day 1, Friday.Friday was a learning curve. I had a massive headache, almost - almost - as equally massive anxiety and I struggled to put myself out there to chat with people and share my experience with you lovely people.But I, with the help of a pharmaceutical rapscallion who handed me Tylenol and ibuprofen, persevered. I ended Friday utterly exhausted but grateful at all I was able to see.We're talking exhibits, sweet-ass merch, Joe "Holy shit, he's the first person I see once I enter the building" Dante. For a scary-movie-loving nerd, Texas Frightmare is nirvana. Seriously.If you're still to attend Texas Frightmare Weekend and want some more tips on how to be and do your best there, do yourself a favor and check out Scarah Screamcast's episode on the 10 Commandments of Texas Frightmare.
