Patron of Horror FAQ


WHY BUY A PATRON OF HORROR TICKET PACKAGE?

Plain ticket sales barely cover our expenses, so by purchasing a deluxe package, you’re showing your ultimate support for the festival and our continuing mission to showcase independent horror in Portland, Oregon. Plus you get some EXCLUSIVE items that won’t be for sale later. It helps us pay for upfront expenses, like theater rental, printing costs, advertising, etc. You become an integral part of helping us put on the festival.

WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH THE T-SHIRT?

Only available in this limited edition package, this gorgeous “Paimon Bonemask” illustration was designed specifically for this year’s event by Brian Callahan. Printed in-house in white and gold inks on black unisex tees (100% pre-shrunk cotton) or women’s fitted tees (soft 60 cotton/40 poly). Scroll down for the sizing chart.

NEED MORE THAN ONE FULL PACKAGE WITH DIFFERENT SHIRT SIZES?

To purchase more than one of the packages on this page with different shirt sizes, add them to the cart one at a time. First, choose your shirt style/size, make your QUANTITY “1”, then click “Add to cart”. In the cart, click the “Continue Shopping” button near the top which will bring you back here, then choose the size for the second package and add that to your cart. Rinse and repeat!

I WANT TO SEND A PACKAGE TO A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER, BUT THEY DO NOT LIVE IN THE SAME HOUSE AS I DO. HOW DO I DO THAT?

To send a complete package to another address, it is easiest if you make a separate purchase so that the mailing address is correct. Choose the stream option, shirt size, make the QUANTITY “1”, then complete checkout with the click “Add to cart”. In the cart, enter your billing information and then check the box next to “Ship to a different address?” Fill in the mailing address and note their email address in the order comments box so we can send them credentials for access to the streaming festival.

HOW DOES THE STREAMING WORK?

The Deluxe Hybrid, Stream at Home, and Stream at Home for Two packages include full access to the streaming edition of the festival.

We are once again using Eventive as our streaming platform this year; it can be watched on a computer, mobile device/tablet, and has TV apps for Roku, Apple TV, and Amazon FireTV.

Access to streaming content begins each evening on a rolling schedule staring June 6th and stays available until June 13th. Once you press play on a stream, you have 48 hours to finish watching. However, we encourage you to begin watching as close to the start time as possible (the final schedule will be available soon – check it for the complete rundown of shows and live events).

Before the streaming content begins, we will email you a link to log in to Eventive and get yourself set up for streaming. Be sure to use an email address that you check frequently so you don’t miss this step! If you registered an account on Eventive to watch last year’s festival, we strongly recommend that you use that same email here when you checkout.

WHEN DO NORMAL TICKETS, WITHOUT ALL THE EXTRA STUFF, GO ON SALE?

Regular tickets will go on sale soon. To be notified, you can sign up for our announcements HERE. Regular in-theater tickets will be approx $15-25 per show, streaming passes will be approx 20-26 per “show”, with a slight discount for a bundle with all the shows. However, those will just be plain tickets and don’t come with the awesome T-shirt, lapel pin, or souvenir badge and lanyard. This makes the Patron of Horror ticket package an excellent value!

ARE THERE ANY AGE RESTRICTIONS?

Since these are all independent films, they don’t come with an MPAA rating. However, this is a horror film festival and many films would be considered hard “R”-rated, (graphic blood and gore, sexual situations, nudity, violence, or themes that are not suitable for younger children). We leave it up to parent’s discretion whether to show these films to your kiddos, and we encourage you to gauge your offspring’s maturity level and do what you think is best.

WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY AWESOME LOOT?

For In-Person and Deluxe Hybrid packages: these include in-person screenings and your goodies must be picked up at the theater during the live screening times. We will not be shipping these, but can arrange for shipping (at your expense) if you end up not being able to pick up. Look for email communication about where and when pickup times will start.

For Stream at Home and Stream at Home for Two: your goodies will be mailed to you via US Postal Service. A shipping notification and tracking number will be sent to the email you use at checkout.
