When academics go to Hollywood!
The Supernatural Creation convention in New Jersey last month was a great place for more than one Interview With The Vampire. We caught up with the Alpha!Vamp himself, Rick Worthy, over a couple of root beers in the hotel bar. Rick turned the tables and did the first part of the interview himself.
The SPNFamily embraced actor Ty Olsson (the reluctant vampire Benny on SPN) after his first con appearance in Las Vegas earlier this year, so we were excited to sit down and chat with him at the next Creation con in New Jersey a few weeks ago. Ty isn’t afraid to be both passionate and vulnerable onstage as well as onscreen, something that fans can relate to – after all, being a fan is all about passion, yet all that passion also makes you vulnerable (every time one fan accuses another of ‘doing fandom wrong’ or a non-fan raises their eyebrows and silently accuses you of being batshit crazy or at the very least a stalker – or when the Show you love hands you an episode like Supernatural’s recent finale and it leaves you sobbing for days. My vulnerability, let me show you.)
Chad Lindberg has been busy! We caught up with Chad at the Dallas con last month to see what he’s been up to.

Who’s looking forward to the Halloween Party Karaoke at Chicago Con next weekend? We are! Richard Speight Jr and Matt Cohen never fail to turn Karaoke into an amazing experience. You never know what’s going to happen or who’s going to take the stage – but you always know you’re gonna have a blast. We caught up with Richard and Matt recently to ask them about their success as Karaoke Kings and the other exciting things going on.
We were lucky to have the chance to chat for a bit with Jared Padalecki at the Toronto Con, and also to get a report from Jared’s VIP meet and greet from passionate Jared!girl Lynda.
We here at Fangasm have been very busy – which we’ll have more to say about very soon. But for the moment, that’s our lame excuse for the delay in posting one of the most enjoyable interviews we’ve ever done – with Supernatural’s own Sheriff Jody Mills, actress (and fabulous writer) Kim Rhodes. We joined Kim for lunch at the Nashville convention, shortly after she started her successful blog and just after her last episode (“Time After Time”) aired. Kim had also recently become active on Twitter, quickly amassing a healthy following of SPN fans and delighting them with her sense of humor and willingness to be real.

In honor of our favorite trench-coated angel’s return to our favorite Show, we’re finally posting some excerpts from our chats with Castiel’s quirky, eccentric, norm-defying portrayer, Misha Collins. As should be obvious from those descriptives, Misha is one of our favorite members of the SPN family.

To celebrate hellatus almost being over and the imminent return of Supernatural to our screens, we’re posting a few more chats from Chi Con. First up, Chad Lindberg.
Greetings from Chilly Chicago! So far enjoyed an interesting Q&A from Rick Worthy, who claims not to wear boxers OR briefs (….) and had a lovely lunch with Chad Lindberg. When we talked to Matt Cohen and Richard Speight in Toronto two weeks ago, they were both lamenting the fact that Chad wasn’t there to join them for karaoke. Well, the good news is — he will be joining them tonight. Crowd surfing, anyone??

As we get ready to head to Toronto for some fun with the SPN family, we thought we’d get you all in the mood by sharing our chat with half of the karaoke dynamic duo, Richard Speight Jr. and Matt Cohen. We sat down with Matt in Vancouver on Saturday afternoon, still feeling blown away by the experience we had the night before.
