The Macabre Mercantile staff attended Days of the Dead convention in Las Vegas as vendors.
We did this because we A) love conventions, and B) wanted to inform the local horror/fan/goth scene that we’re here and opening a store.

Media Minion and the Dark Mistress handed out lots of postcards with a savings coupon on the back and met a lot of people. The event was fun and friendly. We were surrounded by celebrities in our little corner of the room such as:  Sid Haig, Traci Lords, PJ Soles, Bill Mosely, Dee Snyder, Marky Ramone, Tyler Mane, Daeg Faerch and more. It was nice meeting all these film personalities up close and personal.

We sold a bunch of merchandise and took a few costume photos. It was so busy that Media Minion was only able to capture a few pictures as well as a quick look around video of our booth and surroundings.

Our intrepid staff of explorers have been to Goldfield, NV in the past but there is just so much to see there that we had to make a return visit.
We saw a lot of car *art* both in the form of very decorated cars in town and an auto *forest* of painted vehicles planted into the ground. We’re glad the macabre van has good clearance and solid shocks, it was quite the off-road trip to the forest.

We visited the pioneer cemetery established in 1904 which is both quaint and kind of sad. We were surprised by the number of wooden grave markers but then again, Nevada is very dry so they will last quite some time.

We did some sightseeing of old buildings in town including the supposedly very haunted Goldfield Hotel. Media Minion was positive he saw something appear and then quickly disappear from a top story window. There was a truck out front but nobody was in the building as far as we could tell so who knows? Can you spot a ghost in any of the windows?

We also found a brothel! Angel’s Ladies was just screaming out for us to take a photo with the junked aircraft at their entrance.

We saw some burros, one of whom was trying really hard to get amorous with mama burro who kicked and complained, wanting nothing to do with him while she tried to protect her baby. We yelled at the old coot and dissuaded him from his love connection. Ah, nature.

Until next time, here’s some images of our trip
