Yep, it's that time of year. October is over, Halloween is in the past and the Christmas season is starting to get old and/or annoying (let's be honest, the Halloween decorations were competing for space with the Christmas stuff). And, chances are, you've got a case of the post-Halloween blues.
Well, this edition of the Weekly Update is sure to help. Although THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR is over for 2021, that doesn't mean Pacific Northwest Horror/Sci Fi/Fantasy Fans won't find plenty of great movies, festivals, cons, stage shows and MUCH MORE happening this week. And don't worry about the rest of the year, as I'll be busy updating the Horror/Sci Fi/Fantasy Calendar, so you won't miss out on anything happening during winter, and into 2022!
So, get ready for Christmas horror films, Krampus sightings, in-person conventions and more. And you'll find it all at The Shadow Over Portland!!
