 <\/p>\n

Walker Stalker Con, a zombie and horror themed fan\u2010centric convention, will be held at The Westin Boston Waterfront in Boston, MA on June 13,14 & 15, 2014. Fan access to celebrity guests will be the primary focus of this event.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 
\nIn Atlanta, GA on November 1\u20103, 2013, Walker Stalker Con made its debut where it
\nassembled more \u201cThe Walking Dead\u201d cast members than any other convention ever
\nbefore, along with other actors from zombie and horror films. The inaugural event had
\nover 10,500 attendees. In Chicago, IL on March 14\u201016, 2014, Walker Stalker Con made
\nits second appearance as a convention and the first Walker Stalker Con of 2014. Now,
\nWalker Stalker Con has set its sights on Boston!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 
\nWith cast members from \u201cThe Walking Dead\u201d returning to the upcoming Boston
\nconvention, along with stars from other zombie and horror films, Walker Stalker Con
\ncontinues to position itself to be particularly unique.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 
\nWalker Stalker Con is the fruit of The Walker Stalkers Podcast with James & Eric
\n(www.thewalkerstalkers.com). The podcast began with an amazing trip to Senoia, GA
\nwhere James & Eric were able to view the set of The Walking Dead and meet the
\nincredible actors from the show. As a result of this experience, a podcast began and
\nthen the idea of a convention focused around recreating that same experience with the
\ncast and crew of the show, along with talented actors and artists from other zombie
\nshows, movies and art.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 
\nIn April 2013, James and Eric decided a podcast wasn\u2019t enough, so they launched a
\nZombie, Horror and Sci\u2010Fi themed fan\u2010centric convention called Walker Stalker Con
\n(http:\/\/www.WalkerStalkerCon.com<\/a>).
\n“We hope to continue this same kind of access and involvement as we did with our
\nsuccessful convention in Atlanta,” say James Frazier and Eric Nordhoff, hosts of the
\npodcast. \u201cWe want fans of TV shows, films and comics in this genre to have a chance to
\nhave real interaction with their favorite celebrities \u2013 not just a 10 second hand shake
\nand photo opp.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 
\nWalker Stalker Con is not just a convention. It is a fan meet\u2010up and an opportunity for
\neach guest to come away feeling like they\u2019ve had an amazing experience and became
\npart of a greater community of zombie lovers! Walker Stalker Con is three days of
\nevents, panels, and experiences that zombie fans won\u2019t find anywhere else!<\/p>\n
