Originally planned for Las Vegas, Famous Monsters Fest chose Philly for this historic event because it is the home of James Warren, the Father of Famous Monsters. Warren, alongside “Uncle Forry” Ackerman, united “Monster Kids” worldwide through Famous Monsters magazine. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet James Warren who will be making a very rare appearance during the 65th-anniversary celebration of the monster he co-created and join us in Philadelphia for this electrifying homage to 65 years of Famous Monsters excellence—a horror fan’s dream!
