We Clink, Chat & Catch Up with Lora Ivanova -- the Founder and Executive Producer of ScareLA, the first convention dedicated to Halloween. Since 2013 the summer hit event has been kicking off the SoCal scare season early to record breaking audiences! When Lora's love for Halloween collided with her trailblazer career in entertainment, marketing and events, she was inspired to create ScareLA. A deep background in theatre and performance art brings a touch of whimsy to this scare creator's darkest of nightmares. 


Prior to that she worked on launching the highly successful immersive horror experience Haunted Play DELUSION to fame alongside its creator Jon Braver and co-producer Neil Patrick Harris as well as for HAuNTcon, the longest running U.S. haunter's convention, alongside Leonard Pickel, the Godfather of Haunting.

 

Scare LA this year is headlined by the ONE & ONLY Elvira!!!  Tune in!

 He shares how he found & followed his passion -- it is a fascinating story that starts with serendipity & a fate conspiracy beginning with a life saving dahl!

 He is generous, kind and so very well-spoken.  We enjoyed learning more about him and listening as he spoke of his travels around the world where he truly has embraced his mantra: "Go Everywhere, Eat Everything"!

Simon shares what he thinks is the common thread that weaves our  meals together and describes the generosity of spirit he has continuously encountered.  Folks always want to have him taste their jams, tomato sauce, spirits and more...he has a wonderful practice of paying it forward that you need to hear!  

 What is his favorite bubbly? Of course, you KNOW we asked! What does he pair his fave with? Listen & find out :) He tells us what some of the tastiest sandwiches he has devoured around the world. *stomach growling* & what is next for him!
