Howl Con?

Has anyone heard of Howl Con?
? Is anyone going?

HowlCon

I'm wary of werewolf-themed get-togethers. I remember reading about some of the early ones, where invariably they involved a lot of liquor and foolishness (usually a number of underagers getting dangerously drunk). One memorable moment at one of these was when one well-known member got stupid-drunk, then continued to leap over the bonfire until he finally tripped and fell in. Not my kind of fun.

At the other end of the spectrum are the hug-wolf cons: a bit too spiritual and poofy for my tastes.

Any info would be appreciated!

I hadn't heard of it.

And Oregon needs more cons.

They're pushing it in horror and werewolf-related forums, but not many other places apparently. Could be another "re-inventing-the-wheel" type of con.

I totally agree! I always had fun at the Portland Westercons and Orycons.
