Phoenix FearCon

Overview

Phoenix FearCon was founded by Jim & Chris McLennan of Trash City as the Phoenix Fear Film Festival, a horror film festival with convention extras, but it grew into Phoenix FearCon, a fully fledged horror convention with a film track. It expanded to two days in 2014 and was sponsored by Fangoria in 2016.
