HorrorHound Day 3

Last day at HorrorHound!

I started out the day by meeting Kiefer Sutherland again, this time for an autograph. We spoke briefly about the brilliant show Designated Survivor, where he plays the US President. He mentioned that they were still working on something for the show even though it was officially cancelled earlier this year. Good news! 😀

After Kiefer, I went to see Shannen Doherty for an autograph. I grew up watching Beverly Hills 90210 where she played one of the main characters. She was super nice and even gave me a hug! When I was a kid watching that show on TV every week, I probably didn’t expect I would get a hug from Brenda Walsh almost thirty years later 😂

Shortly after, Shannen did an hour-long panel about her career which was very interesting, fun and moving. She has been going through a long battle with cancer and was clearly very grateful to be out and enjoying life. I got a photo with her a little later in the day which was also a nice experience. Just a lovely person.

At some point over the afternoon, I met Billy Zane for an autograph and got a photo with the two guys from The Karate Kid and Cobra Kai. Another moment that the childhood me would never have imagined happening so many years later! Also, they have basically not aged since the movie came out in ‘84.

I didn’t have much planned today, so I attended a panel for a movie called 31. Since I haven’t seen that movie it was difficult to follow, but there were some cool behind the set stories. The actors from that movie were a bit nuts though!

It was my first time at this convention, but I really enjoyed it and hope to return sometime.

After leaving the con, I went for a short walk around the city. It was a bit too hot to stay outside for too long though and there isn’t a long list of things to do here, it seems. Instead I ended up getting lunch/dinner at an Italian restaurant. I got three courses, ice water and a big loaf of bread for 12 bucks! That’s a hell of a deal. The food and service was really good too.

Tomorrow.. Canada! 🇨🇦En savoir plus
