Hello Dino here, giving you an update on what’s coming up this year for Hauntmare 2027!
Some changes are happening this year, and I want to share a little about where Hauntmare is headed.
When I first thought up Hauntmare while flying home from St. Louis after attending TransWorld, my goal was to bring everything I loved about the many horror conventions I had attended to the Central Valley — so YOU could experience what I had experienced.
Halloween and horror have been a passion of mine for years. I started creating my home haunt in 2009 and then created Team Skream in 2012. Over the last few years, we have been building the Hauntmare name, and now Scott Woods will be assisting me in bringing my main vision for Hauntmare to life.
That means more entertainment, more Halloween vendors, celebrities, and a showdown you absolutely will NOT want to miss! 🔥
👀 WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Right now, we are working on several different logo ideas, and we want YOU to help decide what logo Hauntmare should have!
Before Grimmz, I had a friend design a logo for Hauntmare, but many people felt it was a little too cartoonish for a horror convention. If you were around in 2024, you may remember that I posted a rabbit as a possible direction.
Well… I beefed up that rabbit. 🐰💀
Here is the beefed-up bunny coming out from the depths of the underworld! 🔥
Some people are saying we should drop the monsters and animals and keep the logo simple.
Others are saying Hauntmare needs a face — something people will immediately recognize as Hauntmare.
That’s where YOU come in!
We want to hear your thoughts. If you have an idea for a Hauntmare logo, or even a drawing you think could work, send it our way! We are currently creating different logo concepts and would love to see what the Hauntmare community comes up with.
We also want to start advertising our first celebrity and get ticket sales going ASAP, so having the right logo will help us get things rolling!
🖤 Thank you all for the incredible support you have given Hauntmare.
We hope to hear your ideas, see your artwork, and have you be part of shaping the future of Hauntmare 2027!
Stay spooky. 👻💀
