Hi Chris and welcome to AL.

If you have a look at the groups section at the top of the page there is a horror section, also keep a look out on the buy & sell section for pieces that come available.

I am also based in the UK.

Chris

Going to conventions is a good place to get horror autographs, if you don't already.

Also, official websites are a good source. However, there's never a 100% guarantee they are genuine, though.

I got Robert Englund's autograph last year and have a couple of Robert and also met him in his Freddy makeup for a photo shoot - a great memory for me. I am also based in the UK.

Cheers,

Rob

Thanks a lot, Robin. :)

I get to go to a few conventions and fests myself too (I run my own horror site), but, weirdly, I've only just got the bug to collect my own autographs, and missed a LOT of opportunities (idiot!)! :P

I'm playing catch-up!

Cheers, mate

You're welcome mate - There will be other opportunities to get the autographs/photos you missed.

Last year was my very first convention and I am not always confident in travelling by myself, being by myself, but it was a great event, if a little crowded and the picture with Robert Englund is a memory for a lifetime and doubt he'd do it again, which is a shame as to many, he is the original Freddy.

Was also great to meet Neve Campbell as I am a MASSIVE Scream fan as well - great film series. Sigourney Weaver was also present.

A great event and hopefully will get to some more, soon. 

I would like to see your horror website as well. 

Best

Robin

Wow, sounds a great event, man! And nice one for getting yourself out there! :) Remember the many good experiences over the few not-so-good and you'll be fine.

My site is www.TheSlaughteredBird.com

I'm based in Liverpool. We don't get many fests/cons up north! :P

Yeah LFCC 2015 last year was fabulous - expensive but worth it.

Thanks for sharing your website :) There are some cons in or around Liverpool but the big ones always seem to be in the Capital or there and there abouts, which is a shame.

Yeah, the best ones seem to be down south, which makes sense really.

The odd decent con/fest creep up here, so hopefully that continues. :)

A good con has started in Sheffield recently and I'm starting my own in May next year.

No problem re sharing my site - the more visitors the better! :P It's non-profit and voluntary (the contribution) but we do okay.

Cheers, mate.

Good to see that the North are catching up :)

Will be great to see how your convention goes - maybe get a few guests along, if possible - :-)

Last year, I think we were a bit spoilt in London due to the high calibre of guests, which is maybe a bit unusual, which is why I didn't think this year's event was as strong. Also, one or two of the big hitters cancelled, sadly.

Just been for a visit to your site - very nice indeed. 

All the best for the convention !

You're welcome Chris - if you let me know what you're into, I might be able to help :)

Best, Rob

Cheers, mate.

Anything horror really (providing it's good! :P). Do you sell items yourself?

Thanks, Robin

Chris

p.s. For some reason I can't reply to your messages, I have to reply to my own and hope you see them!
