Hey creepy cool kids, Tidewater ComiCon is almost upon us again.
The Macabre crew went last year and it was an incredible event. We’re going again and we’re bigger and better this time.
Look for us in Booths 1502-1503 right near the main entrance.
May 13-14 2017 check it out!
Here’s a great video recap of last year’s event. We didn’t make the clip but our good friends from Eclectic Goods did.

The Macabre Mercantile staff travelled to Cherry Hill New Jersey to attend Monster Mania. It was a great time. We met many cool people and got to introduce the world of the Wickedly Decadent to a lot of new people. While we won’t be able to attend the August show due to other commitments, we fully intend to return in 2018.
We took a few photos between helping customers:
Camp Scarefest convention Lexington KY

Hello my spooky darlings, it’s your old pal Mercy Macabre fashion icon and official anorexic spokesmodel for Macabre Mercantile.
I travelled to Lexington KY recently to attend the Scarefest horror and paranormal convention. We attended last year and took the prize for best vendor booth. After a start like that we HAD to come back.
Our booth was bigger and better than last year and our own Media Minion came up with a new layout that really helped him and the Crypt Queen run an efficient and fun booth.
We met lots of people, made new friends and even got to meet GWAR.
We also had a visitor from last year return to say hi and he brought a video camera and created the most fun video of his visit to our booth. Check it out.
It was a fun convention, we didn’t win the best booth again but hey, that’s not why we went. We went to have fun, meet people and provide the coolest merchandise for those who want to be Wickedly Decadent.
Now on to the photos. We can’t wait until next year to do it all over again.

Scares That Care Weekend Convention 2016
by Mercy Macabre on Aug.12, 2016, under News
Macabre Mercantile attended its 3rd Scares That Care convention to help those in need and have a great time with horror fans of all types.
Here’s a few pics of some of the things we saw. Most of our photos are from the Dealer Room but we actually got to the Costume competition this year as well. Some amazing costumes by very talented people.
We actually got to witness Joe Ripple award a check to one of the chosen recipients at the competition. It was very moving and reminded us all why we were there.
Check out Scares That Care.org to find out about all the good work these folks do and maybe try to come to the show next year.
Now on to our photos. Next stop will be Scarefest in Lexington KY.
Tidewater Comicon 2016
by Mercy Macabre on Jul.10, 2016, under News
Oh my skull is so empty that I never got around to uploading our photos and tales of fun from Tidewater Comicon.
Macabre Mercantile went to this convention for the first time this year. We’ve never done a comicon and were unsure if we would mesh with this fan base – we did.
OMG what a fun crowd. Lots of people in great costumes. It was amazing watching the people lining up to get into the event. It didn’t matter that the sky opened at one point and poured rain down on the Virginia Beach area these fans wanted their convention and would deal with anything to get in.
We hardly had a moment to do anything but man our booth (which BTW was way too small for us, next year we go big) so we didnt see a lot of the actual event but the people watching was wonderful Kudos especially to the Megatron who walked into the food area and to the young man in Spidey outfit who made Uncle Ben’s corpse out of boxes of Uncle Ben’s Rice – what creativity.
I included a couple panorama shots of the dealer room – click on any of the images for a large version to see details We’ll be back at Tidewater in 2017 for sure. Next stop for us is Scares That Care
