Carcass, Death Angel and Orchid have confirmed their appearances at Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett‘s upcoming horror convention, ‘Kirk Von Hammett’s Fear FestEviL‘.
The convention is to be held at The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco, CA from February 06th to 08th and will find Hammet displaying his impressive collection of horror movie memorabilia. He said of the event:
“I’ve always loved horror, I’ve always loved collecting, I’ve always loved weird and macabre things and I’ve always loved conventions. So what could be better than having your own Fear FestEviL where ALL those great and crazy things can be enjoyed by like-minded people under one pretty cool roof?! Nothing!!! And because I’ve seen some conventions turn from back-room gatherings of like-minded dorks into mainstream hipster extravaganzas, rest assured that it’s my intention to make this a great experience where all things horror, weird, and nerdy are celebrated! So come one and all!!!”
Panelists confirmed to appear include Slash, Greg Nicotero (‘The Walking Dead‘), Tom Savini (‘Dawn Of The Dead‘, etc.) and John A Russo (‘Night Of The Living Dead‘). More guests and bands are to be confirmed in the coming weeks with further details available at fearfestevil.com.
