RFC Flashback: Halloween, The ShockaCon Years

Wrapping up our look at Radio Free Charleston’s ghosts of Halloweens past, we go back to the last two years. In 2012 and again last year, we simply shot our Halloween shows at ShockaCon, West Virginia’s premiere horror/sci fi convention. It worked out great with tons of cool stuff and performances by HarraH, The Nanker Phelge, The Renfields, The Big Bad, Foz Rotton, The Wayward Girls School of Burlesque and more. Last year I even interviewed people, which I never do on RFC.

The 2012 show was shot at The Mound in South Charleston. Last year we shot at The Haunted Barn. Last year also included the infamous Twerking Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.

This year we decided to shake things up a bit. Rather than make everyone wait a month to see the ShockaCon footage, we starting posting it right after the event.  I came up with a really cool idea for this year’s Halloween show, which you will see here in PopCult on Monday.We have music from HarraH, The Jasons, Radio Cult and The Possum Kingdom Ramblers, and very special host segments with very special guests.

Hopefully after that I’ll get around to posting the rest of this year’s ShockaCon panels and performances, because I still have about five hours worth of those left.

But for now, here’s our three Halloween episodes from the past two years (Last year we did a two-parter)…
