We, at Skull and Bones Entertainment, recently had the
opportunity to experience our second Days of the Dead convention. This time we
went back to where it all began, Indianapolis, Indiana. We began our trip early
Thursday morning to catch our flight out of Orlando to Indianapolis. We haven’t
been that far from Jacksonville, Florida in a very long time so it was a big
deal for us. During the flight all we could think about was meeting people we
grew up admiring like Lamberto Bava, Traci Lords, Dick Miller, and Tom Savini
just to name a few. We couldn’t wait to arrive in Indy and be amongst the
horror crowd and our convention family. Once we arrived at the airport in
Indianapolis, Adolfo was an excellent promoter by having a ride waiting to take
us to the hotel. We always arrive to
Days of the Dead on Thursday to make sure we attend the infamous pre-party. If
you’ve ever been to a Days of the Dead pre-party, you know what we mean. It’s
the perfect way to start an awesome weekend.

Skull and Bones Entertainment to interview Nick Principe
Skull and Bones Entertainment to interview Nick Principe in March
Nick is best known for his role as Chromeskull, the meticulous and technologically savvy killer in Laid to Rest and Chromeskull: Laid to Rest 2. He also has an uncredited cameo in Hatchet 2 as a hunter. Standing at almost 7 feet tall, he’s one of the tallest stuntmen in the industry. Even with his size he manages to perform as one of the most graceful killers around. Though his fellow actors have described Nick as a kind and good hearted person, when the time comes to get in character, he has no problem bringing a menacing and unsettling presence to the set.
Nick came to Los Angeles as a horror fan himself. His resume simply stated “I want to be Michael Meyers” and his passion for the horror genre can be best summarized by one of his many tattoos, which reads, “Born to Kill”. He has proved his dedication to the character Chromeskull by getting a tattoo of him on his back.
Look for him in VS, Madison County, and Nobody Can Cool which are currently awaiting release dates. Nick has several projects to be released in the near future, in 2012 be sure to look out for Nick in Mondo Holocausto! Disciples and The FP, which is due out in Spring.
With his passion for slasher films and love for the genre expect to see plenty more outstanding performances from Nick in the future.

![]() |
| DAYS OF THE DEAD brings its fan favorite MEN BEHIND THE MASK panel (one of the highlights of DAYS OF THE DEAD in Indianapolis last July) to their upcoming Atlanta show, March 9th-11th, 2012. |
What happens when you stick four of the biggest, baddest men in horror in one room and unleash them upon a crowd of horror fans? DAYS OF THE DEAD aims to find out when they bring their fan favorite MEN BEHIND THE MASK panel to DAYS OF THE DEAD II, happening Saturday, March 10th, 2012 during the convention's weekend take over of Peachtree City, GA just outside Atlanta.
The first MEN BEHIND THE MASK panel was one of the most talked about events at the first DAYS OF THE DEAD show, which happened last July in Indianapolis, IN, and featured Derek Mears (Friday the 13th 2009), Brian Steele (Predators, Underworld), and Andrew Bryniarski (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003). This time around, DAYS OF THE DEAD is bringing back veterans Mears and Steele while inviting two new masked men to join the fold: Nick Principe (who played Chromeskull in the Laid to Rest franchise) and Tyler Mane (known in the horror genre for portraying Michael Meyers in both of Rob Zombie's Halloween movies)Tuesday, September 27, 2011
Roddy Piper, Sid Haig, and Nick Principe added to DAYS OF THE DEAD: Atlanta
It is with great pleasure that we announce the additions of action star and pro-wrestling legend, "ROWDY" RODDY PIPER, as well as genre icon, SID HAIG, and actor NICK PRINCIPE joining an all star cast of horror talent at DAYS OF THE DEAD: Atlanta which already includes Barbara Crampton, Heather Langenkamp, Gary Busey, Amelia Kinkade, Bill Moseley, Howard Sherman, and many more!
DAYS OF THE DEAD: Atlanta, happening March 9th-11th in Peachtree City, GA!
"Rowdy" Roddy Piper, is one of the most recognizable names in the history of professional wrestling and one of the most infamous villains in the history of the sport. Known for his spontaneity, and his rockstar-like persona, "Hot Rod" is often remembered for his long standing feud with arch nemesis Hulk Hogan, a rivalry that culminated in an epic brawl at Wrestlemania I which saw Hogan and Mr. T going against (and narrowly defeating) Piper and Paul Orndorff (with Muhammad Ali acting as special guest referee). Throughout his tenure in pro wrestling, Piper accumulated thirty-four championships in various promotions during his career. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005.
