Oh...  How could I forget the Zombie Beauty Pageant? :)  With zombie walk competition, talent competition, then interviews :)   One corner of the room had top costume and makeup pros making x-men characters up into zombies on the fly.

Lots of kids dressed like Narutu, once in a while I saw a kid in a Kakurenbo fox mask, those were the win.  Fully accurate Ghostbusters and Star Wars costumes too.  Saw the film Netherbeast Incorporated, think Office Space with vampires, and the local film students showed their wares.

They're still adding guests, so check back every couple weeks for the latest.  (and yes, I know the website has layout issues in Firefox on Linux, I'll let them know and offer to help fix it, if you have the web developer toolbar extension, just disable the embedded styles, the problem is a 3 line snip of style info that's not correct)
