Come along as we explore the Hall of Shadows and watch the sliders of Decayed Brigade on opening night of Midsummer Scream 2026.

Midsummer Scream is the world's largest Halloween and Horror Convention, often described as Southern California's kick-off of the Halloween season.

The event features previews from local haunted attractions and Halloween events of their fall plans, celebrity guests from the worlds of spooky and horror film, TV, and video games, hundreds of vendors to shop from, and live entertainment across multiple stages, and the Hall of Shadows: a massive hall filled with haunted walk-thrus and displays set up just for the weekend, showcasing the talents of SoCal's best pro and home haunters.

Midsummer Scream is open to all ages, but parental guidance advised.
