Step into the shadows and join us at the historic Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula, California, on January 22-24 for an unforgettable weekend of paranormal exploration, occult discovery, and spine-tingling encounters.

Produced by American Witch 13, Plumb Paranormal, and Saint & Seance, this three-day immersive convention invites believers, skeptics, investigators, and the curious alike to experience one of Southern California's most famously haunted locations.

Throughout the weekend, guests can enjoy presentations from renowned paranormal investigators and occult experts, browse a curated vendor market featuring local artists and makers, receive psychic readings, attend séances, and even get tattooed on-site.

Kick off the festivities on Friday evening with our Opening Night Ritual and Party before diving deeper into the unknown. Saturday night features exclusive paranormal investigations, while additional investigations will take place throughout the weekend in some of the Glen Tavern Inn's most haunted rooms, available to General Admission and upgraded pass holders.


Whether you're seeking evidence of the beyond, exploring esoteric traditions, or simply looking for a thrilling weekend unlike any other, this convention offers a truly immersive journey into the strange and supernatural.


Day Passes, Weekend Passes, and VIP Experiences available. Dare to explore where history lingers and spirits play.
