Together, they joined for a live panel to share their experiences with the franchise and their time on set stepping into the character. The panel also allowed for audience interaction, as fans asked the stars questions and shared their impressions of Michael’s walk, making it an eerie and memorable event.
Another standout guest who took fans by surprise is Andy Black, who helped steal the show among both horror fans and Black Veil Brides fans. His appearance helped connect two worlds of music and film, drawing excitement from various fans. His presence was thrilling, sarcastic, dark, and welcoming. He engaged with fans and staff member in a humorous way and took the time to learn their names and converse. He shared his future plans for Black Veil Brides, including new music and touring. He even dabbled in his love for Batman, stating that he and his father shared a bond over the Dark Knight, which fueled his passion and influenced his decision to voice Batman in the DC Comics web series adaptation Dark Nights: Death Metal from 2020 to 2021.
With legendary horror icons, engaging panels, and memorable fan interactions, Big Texas Terror continues to prove and remain the San Antonio event for horror enthusiasts. We can’t wait to see what nightmares await next year!
