Pre-Show: Monster "Hedbanz" Game

Think you know your goblins from your ghouls? Join us for a fun and friendly game of "Hedbanz" where every player wears the name of a fictional monster on their forehead and tries to guess who they are by asking other players only "yes" or "no" questions.

From classic cryptids to legendary beasts and pop culture nightmares, it’s a monster mash of mayhem and mystery. Perfect for fans of fantasy, horror and prizes!

About Pre-Show Activities: Presented before select events, our Pre-Shows are all about bringing people together in creative, fun ways. The Monster "Hedbanz" Game is the perfect warm-up before our main event with Linwood Barclay and Joe Hill discussing their latest spine-tingling tales—so come early, come curious and come ready to play.

This interactive pre-show is followed by Linwood Barclay & Joe Hill: Objects of Terror, which starts at 7pm in the Appel Salon. You can register for that event here, but please note if you wish to attend the pre-event activity you need to register separately on this page.
