Yes, THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR has come and gone, and it's possible you're suffering the post-Halloween blues. Symptoms include a general feeling of malaise and the sensation that you'll never find anything to do until October comes around next year.
Wait, what do you mean Halloween is over and I shouldn't cover myself
with fake blood anymore? That is so uncool.
Well, don't fret, Pacific Northwest Horror/Sci Fi/Fantasy Fans, November is still full of great events, movies and conventions to carry us through the rest of 2018. Just look at this edition of the Weekly Update, which includes a slew of great movies, cons, art events and MORE to help you keep the glow of Halloween in your heart.
And it's not a temporary holdover from last month. Just head over the the
Horror/Sci Fi/Fantasy Calendar, where you'll find lots of great events coming our way during the rest of the year, and well into 2019. And you know more is on the way, as I find more geeky holiday bazaars, films, stage events and cons to share with everyone.
If you want your event listed on the site, it's easy to do. Just email me at shadowoverportland@live.com with the details and promotional artwork, and I'll do everything else. Except for send you a bill, as posting your event on The Shadow Over Portland is FREE!
From Ashland, OR, to Vancouver, BC, The Shadow Over Portland has you covered!!
