One of the greater thrills of loading tables at Texas Frightmare Weekend isn’t just in the expression of new attendees when they see something they aren’t expecting. The better thrill is seeing longtime attendees, who remember the early days of Frightmare from personal experience, who specifically look for the booth to see what I brought out this time. 2015 was a fair mix of both, which helps explain why this was the largest attendance yet. It wasn’t just a matter of explaining to newbies what I was doing, nor greeting longtimers who wanted to expand their collections. It was barely constrained chaos on all three days, and I can’t thank my booth assistant Nikki enough for her help. Without her ability to be in four places at once, we’d never be able to keep up with all of the people and their (to an individual, very good) questions.
