Northern Frights

Scotland's Home of Horrror

welcome...

Welcome to Northern Frights, where horror isn’t just an event – it’s our entire existence. We’re the demons behind Horror Con Scotland, but we’re much more than that.

From immersive horror events and our portable coffin escape room to dark stories, creepy characters, horror merch and unforgettable experiences, Northern Frights is here for people who like things a little darker.

We create things horror fans can experience, read, wear, attend and take home.

So whether you’re looking for your next event, something terrifying to hire, or just a corner of the internet that feels a bit more haunted, you’re in the right place.

Why Northern Frights?

Because horror is who we are – not just what we do. We work with Scotland’s best creators, SFX artists, filmmakers, and performers to produce the kind of content, events, and products that horror fans crave.

Northern Frights isn’t run by soulless corporations – it’s built by one mortal and a horde of demons who love horror, chaos, and a good scare. We’re Scotland’s hub for everything spooky, and our claws are just getting sharper.
