The Silver Scream Convention 4: Everything You Need To Know

The blood spattered lovechild of Ice Nine Kills returns this year with The Silver Scream Convention 4, set to terrorise the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts, from September 12–14, 2025. What started in 2022 as a horror-metal experiment near Salem has now mutated into a full scale beast, more than doubling in size and earning its spot as the ultimate gathering for horror fanatics and INK’s loyal “Psychos.”

The Line-up From Your Nightmares

This isn’t your average con with a couple of tired cameos. Silver Scream Convention 4 is packing some of the biggest names in horror.

• Danny Trejo (From Dusk Till Dawn, Machete)
• Rose McGowan, Skeet Ulrich & Matthew Lillard (Scream)
• Roger L. Jackson (the voice of Ghostface)
• Kane Hodder (Friday the 13th)
• Barbara Crampton & Jeffrey Combs (Re-Animator)
• Ashley Laurence (Hellraiser)
• Greg Nicotero (The Walking Dead)
• Tom Savini (makeup FX legend)
• Terry Kiser (Weekend at Bernie’s)
• Damien Leone & David Howard Thornton (Terrifier)

That’s just scratching the surface, this year’s guest list is stacked with icons who helped carve horror into our collective nightmares.

What’s On

Across three blood drenched days, fans can dive into:

• Panels and Q&As with the stars of horror classics.
• Photo ops and signings that put you face to face with legends.
• Cosplay contests where the gore level goes well beyond Halloween.
• Immersive horror experiences built to shake even the hardiest psychos.
• And, of course, an exclusive Ice Nine Kills concert, the band’s cinematic horror anthems unleashed in their true element.

When The Madness Hits

This is the best bit, it’s almost time:

• Friday, Sept 12: 5pm – 10pm
• Saturday, Sept 13: 11am – 7pm
• Sunday, Sept 14: 11am – 5pm

Weekend passes and single day tickets are available, with Friday as the warm up before Saturday and Sunday bring the full carnage.

Final Cut

For Spencer Charnas, who grew up haunting horror cons before creating his own, this is more than a vanity project, it’s a bloody homecoming. Silver Scream Con isn’t just about meeting your heroes, it’s about stepping into the world that birthed Ice Nine Kills’ horrorcore empire. Three days, one city, and a whole lot of screams. Worcester’s about to get carved open.
