EVENTS

The annual Bram Stoker International Film Festival in Whitby, Yorkshire, features significant Hammer content at this year's proceedings from Thursday 14th - Sunday 17th October 2010.

Hammer are presenting the Vampires' Ball on the Saturday evening - a lavish costume ball for over-18s.

The festival will also feature an extensive Hammer exhibition which promises "the worlds largest collection of Hammer memorabilia, posters, props and costumes" - details to be announced soon.

This event will be attended and hosted by Hammer stars, film historians and authors and will include Q&A and signing sessions, and special guests include Hammer historian Marcus Hearn, and Hammer actresses Caroline Munro, Ingrid Pitt, and Madeline Smith. As well as genre favourites Emily Booth and Frank Henenlotter.
