HALLOWEEN & PARTY EXPO LAS VEGAS 2025
Terror 29 Takes on Las Vegas: Halloween Expo, Haunted Museums, and Horror Merch Galore!
A HAUNT LOVERS DREAM: THE HALLOWEEN & PARTY EXPO
The Halloween & Party Expo is a can’t-miss event for anyone in the haunt and horror world, and this year’s convention was a total scream. Imagine a massive venue buzzing with Halloween and horror vendors, all showcasing the latest and greatest in horror merchandise—think killer costumes, eerie masks, and props that’ll haunt your dreams.
For a Halloween store like Terror 29, it’s the perfect place to discover what’s next in the industry.
Our goal? To keep Terror 29 at the forefront of the haunt industry by connecting with vendors and scoping out products that’ll thrill our customers. We spent the expo networking with companies, forging new relationships, and getting a firsthand look at what’s coming down the pipeline. The connections we made will keep our Mystery Shop of Horrors & Curiosities stocked with the creepiest and coolest finds all year long.
HANGING WITH TRICK OR TREAT STUDIOS
As an Authorized Retailer for Trick or Treat Studios, stopping by their booth was a highlight of the trip. We’ve been selling their spine-chilling products for years and chatting with their team over email, but meeting them face-to-face was a game-changer. Putting faces to names made it personal, and we loved getting an exclusive preview of their upcoming products for 2025 and 2026. Trust us—these new releases are going to blow your mind, and we can’t wait to bring them to our Halloween store for you to enjoy!
FRESH HORROR MERCHANDISE HEADED YOUR WAY!
The expo wasn’t just about browsing—we got down to business and placed orders with several vendors to keep our shelves stocked with the latest horror merchandise. Some of these goodies have already landed at our Mystery Shop of Horrors & Curiosities, with more on the way as we speak. From creepy collectibles to haunt-ready décor, there’s plenty to get excited about.
Plus, we’ve sealed a new business relationship that gives us access to new product drops throughout the year. That means Terror 29 will always be your go-to Halloween store for the freshest frights, no matter when your horror craving strikes. Check out our online store to see what’s new and snag your favorites!
A CREEPY DETOUR: ZAK BAGANS’ HAUNTED MUSEUM
While in Vegas, we couldn’t resist a visit to Zak Bagans’ Haunted Museum, a hotspot for anyone who loves the strange and unusual. Love him or hate him, Zak Bagans has created something special here. Even if you’re not sold on the spooky stories, the museum’s top-notch design and eerie rooms make it a standout experience. It’s packed with oddities and artifacts that’ll leave you intrigued, believer or not.
This was my second visit in just a year and a half, and I was amazed at how much had changed. Updated exhibits and refreshed spaces made it feel brand new, so if you’ve been before, it’s worth a second trip. For first-timers, it’s a must-see haunt attraction that’s as entertaining as it is unsettling.
A VEGAS CLASSIC: BLUE MAN GROUP AT THE LUXOR
No Vegas adventure is complete without some world-class entertainment, and for us, that meant catching Blue Man Group at the Luxor. If you’ve been following along, you know I’m obsessed—and for good reason! The show’s wild creativity, humor, and jaw-dropping visuals make it a blast every time. Whether you’re a horror fan or just looking for a fun night out, I can’t recommend it enough. It’s a perfect way to cap off a spooky trip!
