Ice Nine Kills Present Silver Scream Con London

Big news, horror fiends, Horrorcore favourites, Ice Nine Kills have announced they are putting their horror convention on the road, bringing it to the UK this December and for the very first time. This promises to be a weekend of the macabre!

Following four hugely successful years in the US, Ice Nine Kills launch their first horror convention in the UK with Silver Scream Con London scheduled to take place at Marble Arch’s Cumberland Hotel over 13-14 December, the same weekend INK headline Wembley Arena (Friday December 12), on their first ever UK arena headline tour.

“When we began discussing the international expansion of Silver Scream Con, the UK felt like the perfect starting point,” Ice Nine Kills frontman Spencer Charnas said. “London has such a rich horror tradition and has always been wickedly kind to our band. Like an American Werewolf in London, the first-ever Silver Scream Con UK is certain to raise some hell.”

Already confirmed to appear at Silver Scream Con London are Terrifier director Damien Leone and actor David Howard Thornton (AKA Art The Clown), and the main man himself, Spencer Charnas, with more to be announced in the very near future. Tickets are on sale now.

Charnas grew up going to horror conventions himself and appears at several of them around the world. He has put that passion and expertise to work alongside Silver Scream Con’s top-tier, seasoned convention organisers.

Each year, horror and music fans gather to meet celebrity guests from iconic franchises, attend in-depth Q&A panels, participate in unique photo opportunities, and engage in immersive experiences.

Silver Scream Con established itself as one of the top horror conventions in the United States at a rapid pace, outgrowing its first location (near Salem, Massachusetts) in just two years.

Last year, Silver Scream Con moved to the more than double in size DCU Center in Worcester. Now it expands internationally, to cater to Ice Nine Kills ‘ ever-growing, horror-hungry international fanbase.

The convention follows their monstrous headline EU and UK A Work Of Art tour, which closes out 2025 in the grandiose, theatrical, blood-drenched style that the band have become masters of. Accompanied by supporting acts Creeper and The Devil Wears Prada, they end the run with their largest ever spectacle at London’s renowned Wembley Arena, before jumping straight into Silver Scream Con London.
