For the Love of Horror

Manchester

2022

This was the first horror convention I went to so, for a treat, I splurged on the expensive VIP ticket earning me a photo with every celebrity guest (you only live once, right?). It was also the 20th anniversary of hit Scottish werewolf movie, Dog Soldiers – an underrated horror movie that I really enjoy and definitely recommend. I cosplayed as the character Bub from Zombie film, Day of the Dead, and had a fantastic time.
