Tickets are $15 with online pre-sale and $20 the day of with children 12 and under being free.

A Halloween and Music Festival

"This year the fest has evolved into a music/horror/fest," says Wildcatter owner Justin Whitfield. "We have seven celebrities attending. From Ghostface to Michael Myers. Music wise, we have four great bands outside and one great band inside for the night party."

The main musical performance will be Crossbreed. The event will host around 50 vendors and exhibits for all interests.

Whitfield says that the event is very professionally managed by the Houston Horror Film organizers. They get great appearances from big named horror actors/actresses.

Get Autographs from Favorite Celebrities

Fans can enjoy meet and greets and get autographs with celebrities from popular horror films and shows and more. Celebrities include Mathieu Coderre, Ghostface from Scream; Casey Hendershot, Michael Myers from Halloween (2007;) Robert Strange, Pyramid Head from Silent Hill and more!

“Halloween is just a magical time of year for me. With the changing of the weather and the nights being earlier, it’s the perfect time for nighttime concerts,” says Whitfield.

23 years ago, this Halloween, Justin Whitfield moved to Katy from Dallas. He was lost and didn’t know what he was going to do next. Fast forward to March 2017 when he bought Wildcatter Saloon. Now he brings a wide range of events to Katy to both entertain and benefit the community who welcomed him.
