Last weekend, the Second Annual Rapture Horror Expo came to Tempe, Arizona, just outside Phoenix.

In addition to artists, vendors, and even tattoo artists, the highlights of the convention included Linda Blair from The Exorcist and “The Ladies of the Living Dead,” featuring Judith O’Dea and Judith Ridley, who played ‘Barbra’ and ‘Judy,’ respectively, in George Romero’s 1968 masterpiece.

There was also a midnight screening of House of 1,000 Corpses, in honor of the movie’s 10th anniversary, with special guest, Sid Haig, costume contests, a “Scream Queen” contest, and of course, a blood drive.
