Silver Scream Con the horror convention that brought 5,000 blood-thirsty movie fans to Boston’s North Shore in each of its first two iterations, brings the Three-quel everyone’s been dying for to Worcester’s DCU Center September 13-15, 2024.

“After two really successful years, Silver Scream Con is back, but this time in the heart of the Commonwealth at the DCU Center in Worcester,” says convention curator and Ice Nine Kills (INK) frontman Spencer Charnas, “This year’s lineup sees us joining forces once again with some of my all-time favorite horror actors and directors from fan-favorite cult classics. But, as with all sequels, we’re gonna up the body count.”
Stars coming to Silver Scream Con 2024 to chop it up with movie lovers, casual fans, and INK’s beloved fans (aka Psychos) include Danny Trejo, who played the title role in the Machete films, and Massachusetts’ own Eli Roth, known for directing Cabin Fever, Knock Knock, and most recently the 2023 remake of the cult classic Thanksgiving.
Jamie Kennedy, who played Randy Meeks in the Scream franchise and a multitude of characters in The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, will be on hand, along with David Howard Thornton, Art the Clown himself, in the Terrifier franchise.
More Terrifier series stars coming to Silver Scream Con this year include writer and director for Terrifier and Terrifier 2 Damien Leone, Lauren LaVera, and Elliott Fullam, known for his co-lead role as Jonathan Shaw (both in Terrifier 2 and 3).
“The Silver Scream Con united horror enthusiasts and INK fans worldwide to celebrate their shared passion for on-screen terror,” Spencer emphasized. “It’s an exclusive opportunity for our dedicated followers to engage with the band and connect with the stars of the films that inspire our music. And folks better get ready, because we’ve got a lot more of your favorite horror actors, directors, and creators making plans to travel to Worcester in September, so stay tuned!”
This extreme weekend includes photo ops, celebrity signings, costume contests, scary-oke, and discussion panels as these legends of horror share memories and nightmares of their silver screen experiences.
