For one weekend a year, the curtain between this life and the next shall lift and the dead will rise up to greet those who have ears to listen and hearts that are open to receive them. Let your senses dance on the stage of the unknown as we gather together in celebration of curiosity and all things paranormal.  















FRIDAY: Learn about the paranormal and how to investigate it with a special day of hands-on workshops including Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) work, The Do’s and Don’ts of Investigating, Using the Tarot for Spirit Communication, and a special Paranormal Bootcamp presented by Syd Schultz, former Western Liaison for the TAPS Family (as seen on Ghost Hunters). Afterwards, join us for a once-in-a-life opportunity to participate in a private magic show by the legendary Aron Houdini at the Hollywood Magic Castle. Then join Aron for a special Houdini Seance show presented by the Magic Castle for your entertainment.

SATURDAY: Join us for a death-defying day of exciting lectures and workshops from your favorite leaders in the field of paranormal investigation, appearances by paranormal TV/Radio/Internet personalities, shopping, food, entertainment, and more! This event is for everyone from paranormal investigators and enthusiasts to halloween/goth/horror/sci-fi/fantasy fans alike! Anyone interested in the more macabre side of life (and beyond) will have a great time at the So Cal Para-Con! 

Afterwards, gather with us under the glowing lights of the big top for a one of a kind evening of dance, ghoulish delights and fantasy freak shows at the Carnivale of the Dead Costume Ball, presented by the So Cal Para-Con. Mingle with celebrity guests, enjoy roving circus acts and entertainment that will tingle your senses, partake in fortune telling that will amaze you, and more! This will be a night you will never forget! Costumes fitting our theme -OR- semi-formal attire with a mask are required. Imaginative costumes are highly recommended.
