Celebrities and Guests

What celebrities and guests will be at Walker Stalker Con?

A list of celebrities and guests can be found on the Guests page.  This list will be updated as we announce new guests.

Will all guests be available for signing and photographs throughout the weekend?

Yes.  Unless otherwise posted, all guests will be signing on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Do the celebrities and guests charge for autographs?

Yes. The celebrities and guests may charge for autographs. It is at the discretion of each celebrity and guest to charge for their autograph.  Each guest can charge whatever price they would like, with most celebrities and guests charging between $20.00 and $30.00 for an autograph.

Do the celebrities and guests personalize autographs during the autograph sessions?

They usually do.  However, it is at the discretion of the celebrity and guest to personalize autographs and they may charge an additional fee for personalizing the autograph.

Can I bring a camera or camcorder to take pictures with the celebrities or guests?

We strongly encourage you to bring you camera, camcorder, phone, etc. to the convention to take photographs.  However, some celebrities will take photos with guests at their tables, others will only be offering photographs during the professional photo ops. It is at the discretion of each celebrity and guest to decide if they will take photos at the table and some celebrities and guests are contractually obligated to take photos at the professional photo op only.

Can I take pictures and get autographs with the celebrities and guests during the Friday Hotel VIP Meet & Greet, Saturday VIP Meet & Greet and Saturday Night Zombie Bash Party?

No.  In order to make the Friday Hotel VIP Meet & Greet, Saturday VIP Meet & Greet and Saturday Night Zombie Bash Party enjoyable for all guests, including our celebrity guests, we do not permit individual photos with the celebrities.  You are more than welcome to bring your cameras into the party but you will not be able to stop and take photos with the celebrity guests.  The point of each of these parties is to get the opportunity to mingle and speak with the celebrity guests, which you would not be able to do during the weekend autograph sessions or the professional photo ops.

What can I bring to have the celebrities and guests sign at Walker Stalker Con?

You can bring whatever you would like.  However, each celebrity and guest has the right to refuse to sign any materials or items that they deem offensive or inappropriate.  Bottom line, if the celebrity or guest doesn’t want to sign your item, there is nothing you or Walker Stalker Con can do to make them sign the item.

Celebrity and Guest Photo Ops

When can I use my photo op ticket?

Your photo op ticket can be used during the session for which you purchased the photo op for.  We will attempt to accommodate your photo op ticket if there is time remaining and it is for the celebrity for which it was purchased.  However, if we cannot accommodate your ticket, you will have to use it during the time for which it was purchased.

How many people can appear in my photo op?

At no additional charge, you and one other person can appear in any photo op.  For each additional person you want in a photo op, there is a charge of 20% of the initial purchase price that will be added to the photo op charge.

Can I request a pose for my photo op with the celebrities?

Time permitting, we will try to accommodate pose requests.

Can I speak with the celebrities during the photo op or obtain an autograph during the photo op?

Short introductions and “hellos” are permitted.  However, this is not the place to have a conversation as there are time restrictions on how long each photo op lasts. If you wish to have a longer conversation, we encourage you to either attend our Hotel VIP Party or the Saturday Night Dead Party.  This information can be found on the Tickets page.

Why do the celebrities and guests have security and handlers?

This is for their protection only.  It’s rare, but the occasional fan can get out of control and we want our celebrities and guests to feel safe and comfortable throughout Walker Stalker Con.

    Help! I’m trying to purhcase tickets but the checkout screen won’t accept my card info. I keep getting the message, “The card you entered cannot be used for this payment.

      At this time, Paypal is the only option.

    How old do you have to be to get into the Friday Hotel VIP Meet & Greet and Saturday VIP Meet & Greet and Saturday Night Zombie Bash Party??

    • James & Eric August 23, 2013 12:19 pm  Reply

      Meet and greets have no age limitations. The Saturday Night party is 18+

  5. Heather August 23, 2013 12:09 pm  Reply

    Will you limit the number of photo ops sold? To create a better fan experience, I think it best that a limit be placed to allow adequate time for a decent photo. At WW Chicago the Celebrity Photo Ops people were extremely rude and pushing fans too quickly through the photos. At best we got 2 seconds for a photo and then yelled at to move on. I mean $65 for 2 seconds and a mediocre photo? Just not right.

    • James & Eric August 23, 2013 12:20 pm  Reply

      There are limitations on the number of photos sold. I will raise your concern with Celeb Photo Ops. Remember, this is a photo op, not a meet and greet. We do have meet and greet experiences on Friday and Saturday that you can attend that you will get more than 2 seconds with most of the celebrities.

    For certain guest there is an autograph ticket, to get an autograph from these guest do I have to pre order the ticket or can I wait in line and pay the guest at the table. I have not seen this clearly stated anywhere

    • James & Eric September 12, 2013 5:55 am  Reply

      For all guests you will be able to wait in line at the table. However, at some point, lines may get cut off. The only way to guarantee you get the autograph is to purchase the ticket in advance.

  11. chad September 12, 2013 4:19 pm  Reply

    I was just wanting to know before I purchase a ticket for a guest autograph or photo(not vip) is it refunded to you if they cancel.

    • James & Eric September 13, 2013 6:19 am  Reply

      If they cancel, we can issue a refund or transfer the autograph to another celebrity.

    Can you email a phone number to contact you regarding a question about being a potential guest? I can explain either via email or with a phone call. Thank you!

    Having never been to any type of convention like this before, I am wondering what does one do all day at these things? I mean, if you aren’t standing in line to get autographs and pictures, what is there to do? I’m just trying to decide whether or not to make the 6 hour drive. Thanks

    • James & Eric September 17, 2013 4:32 pm  Reply

      First, we are reducing lines by using a virtual line system that pages you to return to line. This way, you spend more time enjoying the convention. There are panels with all of our guests. There are VIP meet & greets with our guests. There are activities throughout the convention floor – opportunities for professional makeup, effects, costuming, tattoos, oddities, etc. Plus, tons of vendors and shopping.

    Following up on the previous comment about what to do, will there be an itinerary available online before the convention?

      There will be a detailed itinerary online several weeks before the convention.
