“Twilight” Fans Return From “TwiCon”

Posted by Elyse Roth on 8/05/09 • Categorized as Movies, Twilight

Passersby may have mistaken downtown Dallas for Forks, Wash., last weekend as a result to the four-day “TwiCon ‘09,” a “Twilight convention” held at the Sheraton, according to MTV.com.

“Twilight” fans of all ages (mostly women) donned t-shirts, costumes, bumper stickers and car window paint for their journey to and time spent at the convention.

Fans had the opportunity to meet some stars of the movie and listen to bands with “Twilight”-inspired names like the Twilight Music Girls and the Bella Cullen Project.

Attendees could go to Bella’s self-defense class, Alice’s makeover room, Emmett’s arm wrestling tournament or cardio with the Cullens.

Saturday fans traded in their Twilight attire for ball gowns and victorian masks for the Volturi Masque Ball. People had to be taken down from the crowded stage when fire officials were concerned that it might collapse.

Also buzzing at the convention were reactions to the news of Rachelle Lefevre’s replacement.

Some tweeple were disgusted that TwiCon even happened, but many others were glad they went the event:
