In the final episode of our Convention Trilogy, where we've already covered the fans and the dealers, we now take a step back even further to the ones that put on the show in the first place: the promoters. These are the people that rent the hotels and convention centers, get the guests, round up the vendors, do the advertising, promotions, all in the hopes in giving the fans that show up a good time with plenty to see and do. When things go wrong, they take the heat for it, but seldom get the credit when things go right, so we wanted to take a peek behind the curtain, as it were, and learn a little about what actually goes into putting on one of these conventions. To get the insight into that side of the conventions, we've invited Nathan Hanneman, editor-in-chief of HorrorHound Magazine and one of the main people behind the Horrorhound Weekend conventions.
