In addition to the vendors dont forget that the Midwest haunters convention also has 2 days packed full of  Haunt seminars and workshops, geared toward helping you improve your haunted house.  A few of my favorites are Katie Lane   from Ravens Wolf, she will be hosting a Improv class, for such a little girl, she is sick in a BIG way. Leonard Pickle will be hosting  a must see  13 steps to being a successful Haunt Owner class, Leonard Pickle has definitely put the time in. John Eslich  of Factory of Terror ( The worlds Largest Haunted House ) will be hosting a class on what you need to get started. All 3 of these would be MUST see seminars for those wanting to start a haunted house. Below is the complete listings for the classes, be sure to check out the website for further details and  prices.

   MHC Costume Ball

  Finally one of the biggest draws to the Midwest haunters Convention is the  MHC costume Ball, where you get to be your favorite monster, let me tell you, I have seen the best costuming ever, at this event.  It just goes to prove that there is a lot of Talented people in the Haunt industry.  During the MHC  costume ball they also host  the Midwests most scary female contest where Judges pick their choice for miss scary. Good luck girls.
  So stop what you are doing, on June 7 thru 9, 2013 book your room and get to columbus, Ohio for the 10th annual 2013 Midwest Haunters Convention.
