Walker Stalker Con Comes to Cleveland in 2019 Celebrating ‘The Walking Dead’

Proving that folks can’t seem to get enough of zombies, the post-apocalyptic shows The Walking Dead and its prequel spin-off Fear the Walking Dead are still roaring and renewed for more seasons. Now Walker Stalker Con, which celebrates and allows avid fans to mingle with actors, writers and creators of the shows, is coming to the Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland Aug. 3-4.

So far the only announced guest for the event is Chris 51 of A&E’s Epic Ink, but if the lineups for other events are any indication, attendees can expect to see many more from the actual series in the flesh.

The two-day event, which started as an offshoot of other horror conventions, is coming to Cleveland after rambling through much of North America and Europe in recent years. 

As with any comic con type event, guests are encouraged to arrive dressed in character, the bloodier the better. Tickets are $29-$59 for general admission, but can run as high as $799 for Platinum VIP. Children (under 16 and accompanied by an adult) and those with the military can attend for free. Of course, celebrity photo ops and autographs must be paid for separately.

Tickets and more information can be found here.
