The Second Annual Las Vegas KillerCon will take place at the Palace Station Hotel/Casino in Sin City. The Horror, Thriller, Sci-fi, and Paranormal Romance genres collide in this multi-genre writers convention.

This event will feature panel discussions, readings, two writing contests, parties, book signings, and author Q&As with guests of honor Brian Lumley, Tananarive Due, John Skipp and Cody Goodfellow, and Steven Barnes, as well as many other top talents in fear fiction who will be in attendance.

Tananarive Due is an American Book Award winner, Bram Stoker Award winner, NAACP Image Award winner, and best-selling author of The Living Blood, My Soul To Keep, Blood Colony, and six other novels ranging from horror to supernatural thrillers to a mystery to a Civil Rights memoir.

Steven Barnes is the New York Times best-selling author of The Legacy of Heorot and The Cestus Deception and has written numerous television screenplays for such shows as The Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Andromeda, and Stargate, as well as four episodes of the immortal Baywatch.

John Skipp is a best-selling author and screenwriter whose eleven books have sold millions of copies and have been reprinted in nine languages. His early works (co-written with Craig Spector) were considered seminal to the "splatterpunk" style of horror fiction. In September 2007, Leisure Books released his novel The Long Last Call together with his novella Conscience. In 2008 he released Jake’s Wake, co-written with author Cody Goodfellow.

Cody Goodfellow is the author of Radiant Dawn, Ravenous Dusk, and co-author of Jake’s Wake (with John Skipp.) His fiction and journalism has appeared in Cemetery Dance, The Third Alternative, Dark Wisdom, Dark Discoveries, Dark Recesses, and Ranch & Coast, and the recent anthologies A Dark & Deadly Valley, Hot Blood 13 and Vault Of Punk Horror.
