Some very good news has filtered it's way down the pike recently with the announcement by the people at the Texas Frightmare Weekend scheduled for May 4-6. If you scroll down their home page you find that Clive Barker has been scheduled to be one of the show's guests. This is both surprising and delightful for Horror fans.
Before you get too crazy I must say that it looks like all of the $160 premium passes for the show are sold out but that doesn't mean (with a little research that there isn't something else available). You could still buy weekend packages and day passes. I would suggest that you don't wait too long to get you regular admittance tickets.
So here's the thing. As anybody worth their horror salt knows, Clive hasn't been in the best of health as of late...extended late. I believe his last convention appearance was in Los Angeles and he appeared to be fighting his way through that. So the surprising part of this announcement is that after he has seemingly come out the other end of the illness tunnel he would choose to make his first appearance halfway across the country from the comfort of home. But it seems to be true and that's the delightful part. This means he must be in much improved health and that is wonderful news.
According to reports coming out of Texas and Hollywood Clive's appearance agent/manager Chris Roe has Clive booked for three days including signings and photo ops.
Wonderful to hear Clive is back! Enjoy your convention Texas and give Clive some of that Western hospitality you're famous for.
