All of these designs, in addition to some other horror themed ones, will be available to have pressed on demand at the con. Some will even be available to have pressed on hats!
At the show, there will be a limited amount of each print, made to order.
FEAR NOT….you can pre-order yours NOW, to be sure you will get yours at the con. You will be simply ordering the “print”, you will pick your shirt size and color at the con. This will ensure that even if we sell out of a design, yours will “reserved” and held until you get it put onto the shirt or hat. If you can’t attend the con in person, no worries, we can take your orders as well. These orders will be filled after the convention, price will vary based on shipping cost.
We know it’s a short deadline but you need to get your order in by Saturday the 24th if you want it to be available at the show.
The shirts will be in the $25-40 range, depending on if you want front or front and back designs.
