Horror Facts
In a world where Wonka-inspired events have left a bittersweet taste in the mouths of many, one brave soul dares to flip the script and create a fantastical experience that blends the best of both worlds – horror and candy. Laura Ripley, the mastermind behind Horror Con Scotland, has concocted a deliciously twisted addition to her already impressive event lineup: “Sweet Screams.”
Fresh off her win at the FSB Self-Employed Awards, Laura has been navigating a whirlwind of questions and doubts about the authenticity of her event’s attractions. While her dragons may not be fire-breathers, they certainly ignite the imagination with their epic puppet designs. In response to the skepticism surrounding the famous Wonka event, Laura has decided to take a bold step forward and create an experience that celebrates the power of imagination and the joy of all things spooky and sweet.
“Sweet Screams” is set to be a candy-coated, scream-filled extravaganza that will turn heads and tickle taste buds. Included with every Horror Con Scotland ticket, this new addition to the event at the SEC in Glasgow on September 21st promises to be a wild ride for all those who dare to enter. Guests will kick off their adventure with two jelly beans, setting the tone for a journey that’s equal parts thrilling and delicious.
In true Laura Ripley fashion, “Sweet Screams” is not just about indulging in sugary treats and spooky thrills. It’s also an opportunity to do some good in the world. Laura is calling on the sweetest confectionery companies to join her brigade and showcase their goods while supporting a charity of their choice through the event’s fundraising efforts. It’s a golden ticket opportunity to make a difference while being part of an unforgettable experience.
But the sweetest twist of all? Laura is extending an invitation to the cast of the original Wonka event to join her “Sweet Screams” adventure. The Glam Loompa and the “Unknown” have already accepted paid roles, and it’s shaping up to be a reunion that will go down in horror-meets-candy history.
So, mark your calendars for September 21st and prepare to be amazed, thrilled, and possibly even a little scared. “Sweet Screams” is a testament to the power of imagination and the resilience of the human spirit. In a world where doubts and skepticism can sometimes overshadow the magic, Laura Ripley and Horror Con Scotland are proving that dreams can come true – even if they’re a little bit twisted.
As Laura herself puts it, “Here if your kids cry, it’s to be expected.” So, grab your tickets, bring your sense of adventure, and get ready to experience a world where horror and candy collide in the most delightful way possible.
