Meet Amy & Darlene

In 2025, Nightmare in Vegas made its debut as Las Vegas' first outdoor horror convention and classic car show, bringing together horror fans, artists, vendors, entertainers, celebrities, and spooky car enthusiasts for an unforgettable weekend of Halloween-inspired fun.

What started as an idea between two lifelong horror fans quickly grew into a community celebration filled with celebrity guests, live entertainment, unique vendors, classic cars, paranormal programming, photo opportunities, delicious food, and the inaugural Miss Nightmare in Vegas Pinup Pageant.

Founded by Las Vegas locals Amy Acevedo and Darlene Seguin, Nightmare in Vegas is an independently owned and operated event built completely from the ground up. As small business owners and lifelong fans of horror, Halloween, the paranormal, and all things spooky, we created Nightmare in Vegas to bring the horror community together in a fun, welcoming, and unforgettable environment.

Nightmare in Vegas was created by local fans for fans. Our goal is simple: celebrate horror, support artists and small businesses, create memorable experiences, and build a community that continues to grow year after year.

Now we're returning to Silverton Casino on October 10th and 11th, 2026 for an even bigger weekend of horror, entertainment, classic cars, celebrity guests, paranormal programming, vendors, and unforgettable memories.

Whether you're a lifelong horror fanatic, a Halloween enthusiast, a collector, a paranormal investigator, a classic car lover, or simply someone who enjoys the strange and unusual, Nightmare in Vegas welcomes you.

Thank you for supporting our dream and helping us build something special right here in Las Vegas.

We can't wait to see you this October.

Spookily Yours,

Amy & Darlene
Founders, Nightmare in Vegas
