Press Release: Vampires are Sinking Their Fangs into Flint this Fall

Vampires are Sinking Their Fangs into Flint this Fall


Flint, Michigan May 26, 2012

There’s a new event coming to Flint in the fall of 2012- Flint Fang Fest.

Local Flint author, book publicist and lifelong Flint area resident, Roxanne Rhoads came up with the idea for Flint Fang Fest in part thanks to the popularity of vampires and werewolves in current pop culture trends. You see them everywhere: in books, in TV shows like The Vampire Diaries and True Blood, and in movies (the most popular being the Twilight Saga- in which Breaking Dawn Part 2 opens in theaters November 16, 2012).

She believes Flint Fang Fest has the potential to bring an economic boost to Flint with a fun and modern pop culture twist- which will coordinate perfectly with other Halloween festivities in the area.

She hopes that Flint Fang Fest can become the “Back to the Bricks” for paranormal enthusiasts.

This year the Flint Horror Convention is in its second year and will be held on October 20. The Flint Vampire Ball is in its fifth year and will be held on October 27.

Flint Fang Fest will start with the Flint Horror Convention on October 20 and end at The Flint Vampire Ball on October 27. Both events are in downtown Flint at The Masonic Temple.

Throughout the week there will be events all over the area- geared for young and old- something for everyone. From author book signings to a vampire theme pin up fashion show featuring local pin up models and a sexy burlesque show performed by the Fischer Bodies.

Fang fest organizers are seeking more downtown businesses to participate in Fang Fest, especially during the day on Saturday October 20, on Friday evening October 26, and Saturday October 27. The goal is to create events throughout the downtown area that patrons can walk to or just have a short drive to.

The HorrorCon will be going on all day October 20 and The Vampire Ball vendors' event will be going on from 11-5 October 27 with the ball starting around 7pm- both at The Masonic Temple right on Saginaw Street.

By holding an event that ties in with Fang Fest, whether a special sale, a product, even a fun menu local businesses could draw a lot of foot traffic from Horror Con and The Vampire Ball to their business on those key days.

All participating events and businesses will be included in promotional advertising for the event- on the Flint Fang Fest web site, on the Facebook page and on fliers and other promotional materials.

You can view the events that are currently scheduled at http://flintfangfest.blogspot.com/p/fang-fest-events.html

 If you would be interested in taking part in this unique opportunity to breath new (undead) life into Flint, give local businesses an economic boost,  help local charities, and have fun while doing it please contact Roxanne at RoxanneRhoads@bewitchingbooktours.com to discuss the possibilities.

The Flint Farmer's Market

The Flint Vampire Ball is a fundraiser for the Farmer's Market so I figured I would share this info since it does pertain to Flint Fang Fest.


I love the The Flint Farmer's Market, it is an absolute gem.

An amazing Farmer's Market in downtown Flint that features fresh produce from local farms, urban farms and community farms. Now they're trying to open two more locations so everyone has access. I'm all for this wonderful opportunity.



The Flint Farmers' Market
Please Support our Neighborhood Markets! 
Do You LOVE
The Flint Farmers' Market? 
If so, you can become a part of our market  
in a special way this summer by helping us 
 bring fresh produce to those who can't get to our downtown market.
Your donation of $10, $25, $50 or $100 (or more) on Indiegogo.com today will help us make it possible for seniors and those without transportation to put fresh fruits and vegetables on their tables this summer.
Two neighborhood markets will be set up in Flint, one in the north end and one in the south end.  Each will feature one of our well known farmers along with local urban and neighborhood gardeners.  These sites will be open on off-market days in the afternoon for just a few hours.  Our hope is that these small outreach sites will truly impact the health and well being of those in our community who are most in need.  Both neighborhood markets will be set up to accept Bridge Cards and Double Up Food Bucks cards.

It's easy to make a difference. 

Even $10 can make a huge impact.  
By donating to this campaign you will automatically become a
Friend of the Flint Farmers' Market
which will entitle you to specials gifts and offers throughout the year.   
Please CLICK HERE to be a part of this important project.

Please Consider Donating to Flint Fang Fest

The idea for Flint Fang Fest has been lurking in the back of Roxanne Rhoads, paranormal author and publicist's, mind for some time, but this year- she decided to make it a reality.


The idea is for Fang Fest to be a week of vampire and paranormal themed events that help boost the economy of the area and put Flint on the map for something positive instead of the negative reasons that usually make the news.


Flint Fang Fest is a week of fun paranormal themed Halloween events in Flint and the Genesee county area- mostly centered in downtown Flint.


Fang Fest will start with the Flint Horror Convention on October 20 and end at The Flint Vampire Ball on October 27.


Throughout the week there will be events all over the area- geared for young and old- something for everyone. From author book signings to a sexy burlesque show performed by the Fischer Bodies.


All donations will be used to fund promotional materials and event expenses for Fang Fest.


Please consider donating and help the revitalization of the Flint area continue.
