The official track description for the Dark Fantasy track is now up on the Dragon*Con website -

Horror, Urban Fantasy, and Gothic Entertainment converge on the Dark Fantasy track - Dragon*Con's home for all thing macabre, sinister, twisted, and downright weird. In 2009, the Dark Fantasy track is planning to bring you its best-ever programming in the fields of literature, film, television, art, music, and culture. From best-selling authors to acclaimed artists, visionary metaphysicians to cutting-edge musicians, "Hellboy" to...well, "Hellraiser," the Dark Fantasy track is sure to offer something to everyone with a taste for "the dark side."

It's short, but to the point. We made some modifications this year in an attempt to better define what the track is and what the track is not. We have the best line-up of authors I have ever seen at Dragon*Con, including some of my personal favorites. I'm also excited about Mike Mignola's presence, and Doug Bradley has always been THE actor guest that I wanted for the track. If you like horror or the darker fringes of fantasy, I hope you enjoy what we are working on this year.
