StokerCon 2026 took place in Pittsburgh at the beginning of June, and this year I was part of the programming team. Me and my good pal Greg Greene were tasked with managing the virtual panels for the con, which was an honor and a lot of fun!
We pulled together a couple dozen virtual panels that were incredible, including my own panel where me and some rock star panelists asked and answered the question: Is horror having a moment, and if so, why?
This episode, I’m happy to share with you the panel in its entirety. The roster of panelists is crazy. Ellen Datlow, Becky Spratford, Jeremy Robert Johnson, Yah Yah Schofield, and George Dunn all contributed their amazing experience and perspective and it was a great time.
If you enjoyed this, maybe consider StokerCon 2027 virtual programming! You have the option to pay just for the Virtual Con which gives you access to all of the new panels as well as panels from previous years. We’re talking hundreds of panels you can only see by getting the Virtual con access. If you are planning to attend StokerCon 2027, you can add virtual to your in-person access. It’s a great value and we’re hoping to go even bigger for 2027.
Also, please support all of the wonderful panelists that joined me. They’re doing great work and deserve as much support and recognition as possible!
