PITTSBURGH - Jan. 31, 2014 - PRLog -- Horror Realm, Pittsburgh’s modern horror convention, presents its second full weekend spring show, dubbed “Spring Break Massacre”, on March 7 to 9, 2014.  The show will be held at the Crowne Plaza Pittsburgh South, which has been home to Horror Realm since 2009.

The spring show is intended as a break from the winter doldrums for horror fans.  It features celebrity guests, a dealer room, film program, VHS viewing room, discussion panels, contests and the return of the Zombie Gras party.

Guests for Spring Break Massacre include:

Lew Temple – The Walking Dead, The Devil’s Rejects, Rob Zombie’s Halloween, The Lone Ranger

The Zombie Gras party will celebrate the spirit of New Orleans with drinks, music (provided by The Musik Machine DJ Service) and dancing.  A costume contest precedes the party. There will be a $50 cash prize for best New Orleans inspired costume.
