Dear Grady,

I’ve prepared a proposal for you to please share with Keffer Hyundai as discussed.

The concept is simple: Charlotte Prowler MagazineESPN CharlotteGo! See! Do! Events

are everywhere. EVERYWHERE. We have just added Sprint, DiSH Network, Harrah’s Casino andmany other major brands to our exhibit partners—and we have more to announce in coming days.

We will exhibit at over 80 festivals, trade shows, sporting events and gatherings this year includingCharlotte’s largest and most-anticipated events.

This is no ordinary proposal—Keffer Hyundai will be the center of attention in Charlotte, NC asHollywood lands in Charlotte and TV, Radio, Print and all media will be focused on the epicentre ofexcitement the weekend of March 21st—The Mad Monster Party!

One of the MOST EXCITING events of the year—one that is fast-becoming a crown jewel event isthe Mad Monster Party—held March 21-23 at the University Hilton and University Place. Theevent has been recognized by the city of Charlotte as a signature event and will only grow each year.The Mad Monster Party currently draws incredible crowds in Hollywood, New Orleans andPhoenix, with more cities to be announced this spring.

Charlotte Prowler Magazine has produced memorable editions for each event in Charlotte includingexclusive interviews past and present with huge Hollywood stars from films such as Godzilla, LethalWeapon, Friday the 13th, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Lost Boys, Nightmare on Elm Street,Jaws, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, ET and The Devil’s Rejects plus TV shows such asAmerican Horror Story, The Twilight Zone, The Dukes of Hazzard, Happy Days, WWFWrestling, and of course, Star Trek.

This year the Mad Monster Party in Charlotte has some one-of-a-kind storylines: William Shatnercelebrating his birthday and LIVE feeds showing the Mad Monster Party audience sing HappyBirthday as we present him with his birthday cake, Metallica’s Kirk Hammett entertaining live, pluslive music throughout the event including a Runaways concert and a monstrous grudge meeting ofRowdy Roddy Piper vs huge Hulk Hogan. Can it get any bigger?

Let me know thoughts on this Top Auto Sponsorship proposal as soon as you can. I would be happyto come out to Keffer Hyundai and meet with the owners/staff and discuss details and plan for thisgreat event.

Best,

When  it  comes  to  pop-­‐culture  and  entertainment,  horror  rules.  And  it  always  has.   In  the  30’s,  

Universal  Studios  was  on  the  brink  of  closing  its’  doors  until  their  iconic  stable  of  monsters  rose  up  to  

save   them.  From  the  biggest  money-­‐making   films   like  Frankenstein   to  contemporary   franchises   like  

Friday   the   13th,   SAW   and   Paranormal   Activity,   to   the  most   popular   video   games   like   Resident   Evil,  

BioShock,  and  of  course,  TV  series  like  the  Walking  Dead  and  American  Horror  Story,  the  horror  genre  

transcends  niche  markets  to  consume  the  wholesale  imagination  of  the  population  at  large.  So,  while  

the   idea   of   horror   fandom   may   conjure   images   of   other   hobbies   like   coin   collecting   or   sports  

enthusiasm,  the  genre  actual  transcends  borders  to  spill  across  demographics  of  age  and  interests.  

Mad   Monster   is   the   fasted   growing   horror   entertainment   company   today.   We   publish   Mad  

Monster   interactive   paper   magazine,   host   multiple   Mad   Monster   Party   conventions   nationally   and  

present  monthly   horror   events   and   screenings   at   venues   like   the  world   famous   Chinese   Theater   in  

Hollywood.   Mad   Monster   balances   retro-­‐nostalgia   with   innovative,   cutting   edge   presentation.   Our  

celebrity   contributors   and   collaborators   include   Kirk   Hammett   of   Metallica   and   Ogre   from   Skinny  

Puppy.  Mad  Monster  offers  perspective  from  all  aspects  of  horror  culture,  inside  and  out,  making  it  the  

“horror   entertainer’s   horror   entertainment”!  As   creatives   ourselves,   coming   from   the   film   industry,  

we  celebrate  history,  but  don’t  live  in  the  past.  We  showcase  not  only  what  our  celebrity  guests  have  

done   so   far,   but   what   they   are   capable   of   doing   providing   them   with   a   platform   to   perform   and  

promote  their  lesser  known  talents  and  causes.  

Mad  Monster  also  supports  and  works  with  many  charities  including  Scares  That  Care,  Honor  

One,   The   Rutger   Haur   Startfish   Association,   The   Linda   Blair  WoodHeart   Foundation,   American   Red  

Cross  and  Celebrity  Charity  Wishes,  to  name  a  few.    

                       Contributing   factors   to   our   success   in   rapid   growth   is   branding   and  understanding   our   target                                    

demographics.  We  have  a  unique  aesthetic  that  is  instantly  recognizable  to  our  fans  and  know  how  to  

most  effectively  market  to  them.  We  apply  that  insight  to  our  sponsors  and  advertisers.  We  provide  in-­‐

house  ad  development   to  best   convey  a   company’s  message  while   remaining   consistent   to  our   fans.  

Major  corporations  are  recognizing  the  values  of  incorporating  horror  and  sci-­‐fi  iconography  and  not  

just  for  their  October  campaigns.  From  the  use  of  Zombies  to  sell  insurance  to  Darth  Vader  to  sell  a  car,                                                                                                                  

trick   is   understanding   both   the   brands’   message   and   consumer’s   appreciation   of   the   horror   genre                                  

                                                   (what  makes  the  campaign  “work”).    We  excel  at  that  too.  

                                                               Coming  Soon    -­‐  Mad  Monster  Radio…!

What is a “Mad Monster Party”? The Mad Monster Party is one of the major Horror entertainment conventions in the country. Some of the very biggest organized social events in the world are “genre” conventions. In this case, the genre refers to the subjects of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror movies, art and literature - a multi-billion dollar industry that is not only the most popular in international entertainment but also inspires creativity in kids, brings a value to vendors of product, consumers and collectors and transcends the boundaries of other hobbies to include, not only fans of the medium, but the very biggest movers and shakers who create media and lead cultural trends. It’s true that many “household names” consider themselves “horror fans” and attribute the horror genre with inspiring them to pursue their careers in the biz, among them, Steven Spielberg, Tim Burton, Quentin Tarantino, Tom Hanks, Guillermo Del Toro, Billy Bob Thornton, James Cameron, Penn & Teller, rock bands Kiss, Metallica, Alice Cooper and countless other superstars are proud members of sci-fi and horror fandom.

What exactly is a Horror Convention? A Horror convention or “Con” is. like a trade show for the horror entertainment industry. Fans flock to these conventions to meet movie stars, talk with fellow fans, participate in Q&A panels and to buy products from vendors and autographs from celebrities in attendance. More than just focusing on horror, these events pay respect to the craft, imagination and fun of the movies. Horror conventions come in many shapes and sizes.The Mad Monster Party anticipates between 7,000 to 10,000 attendees for 2014 and we expect attendance to grow significantly over the next couple of years. ComicCon in San Diego, California boasts 120,000 attendees through their doors in a single day and Comiket in Japan reports 600,000 guests attend their shows! And one can never overlook the purchasing power of a demographic spanning the ages of 12-60 and steeped in a “collecting culture” of buying. The peaks and valleys of economy do little to influence a completist who purchases everything connected to their passion or an eager fan spending their dollars with contributors to and sponsors of the genre.

2013 Panel / Q & A

How does Mad Monster Party benefit MY business? The Mad Monster Party is a horror convention with a difference. While other national shows install a generic event in a random city, Mad Monster is building their show from the inside out. We’ve identified Charlotte as a city with no other horror convention presence and a large community of friendly fans eager for this event to happen. With the support and collaboration of local Charlotte organizations (like “Visit Charlotte” tourism board) and businesses (Haunted Mill, Halloween Express, Morris Costumes, The Comedy Zone, etc), Mad Monster Party is committed to partnering with the Charlotte community to provide a unique convention that is fresh, family-friendly, theatrical, and innovative and one that will offer visiting fans from across the nation a destination for years to come. The Mad Monster Party can accommodate up to 10,000 attendees for 2013. We project our attendees to be 30% tourist and 70% local. Based at the Blake Hotel, visiting guests will come and stay for a long weekend, enjoy the events and panels planned, shop in our huge dealer room, meet local business owners and explore the city of Charlotte. Local guests will enjoy all of these events, get a taste of Hollywood excitement and experience our Charlotte sponsors and their services in person. The creative team at Mad Monster can relate or theme ANY business to our show. Any auto dealership can sponsor and appear side-by-side with the famous screen-used cars from movies like (Back to the Future / Ghostbusters) on display. A pest exterminator can be a sponsor of our Creepy Critters bug display. We also have designed creative games and services like treasure maps and text clubbing and phone apps to drive our attendees to our sponsors. The potential for visibility, publicity and fun are endless. We will also be conducting national and local print, TV and radio advertising for the show.

So, how can I participate in this Mad Monster Party? Just have a look at the variety of sponsor packages below. All designed to give you the biggest possible BOO for your buck! The folks at Mad Monster understand branding and promotion and look forward to putting all of their energies into making your company, product and services stand out to our thousands of attendees. At Mad Monster, we do business by relationship and are committed to a mutually beneficial relationship with you that will grow and prosper just as the Mad Monster Party convention expands!
