Necronomicon 2010- Florida’s Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Convention
Aside from just being a wickedly cool event, Necro 2010 will hold many events to lure Tampa Bay area steampunks, including costume contests and an enticing panel:
“The Steampunk Stealth Telescope: A Practical Demonstration”- 5 p.m., Saturday, October 23. Noooo idea what this entails but it’s intriguing. I’m certainly attending.
