Guest Announcement! Reece Shearsmith!

Hello Daaave! 💥😈

We are so thrilled to announce that Reece Shearsmith will be joining us on Sunday, 7th June 2026 at HorrorConUK!

Reece isn’t just a guest; he’s the twisted genius behind some of the most unsettling, inventive, and hilariously dark characters in British horror-comedy. Fans will know him as one of the legendary members of The League of Gentlemen, as well as from Psychoville and Inside No. 9, shows that made us laugh, cringe, and go “WTF!?”.

And that’s not all… Reece has also brought his unique brand of dark humour and horror to the BBC comedy-horror series The Witchfinder as Matthew Hopkins, and to films such as In the Earth, The Cottage, A Field in England, and the zombie classic Shaun of the Dead. Other notable credits include Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, Good Omens, Stag, Mid-Morning Matters with Alan Partridge, Hunderby, Doctor Who, House of Fools, and The Widower.

This is your chance to meet a true master of horror-comedy!  🎟 Tickets and Sunday photo ops are on sale now HERE!
