My Summer Lair Chapter #67: Do Zombies Have “The Brains“ to Enjoy Magic?

I’m on location at Horror-Rama Toronto’s horror convention and fan experience “DEADicated” to celebrating horror film culture of all kinds. Yo, it’s a comic book convention but for horror nerds. (As a quick aside horror fans are some fresh and fun folks.)

And at Horror-Rama I’m chatting with horrror-magician Ryan Brown.

Ryan Brown has been conjuring up scares with Screemers at Exhibition Place for a number of years and is know for his horror-based illusions. Yes horror and magic in one show. Now we’re cooking with gas!

Ryan shares his origin story, seeing magic early on as a kid and most importantly…with his unique brand of magic and horror…can he survive a zombie apocalypse? Can zombies be distracted by close up magic?

Fun; let’s find out!

Some magic from Ryan Brown…
