Sideshow's original dark fantasy and horror property, Court of the Dead, will bring fans from both the Underworld and the Mortal Realm together for a brand new celebration: Court of the Dead Day on Friday, February 19!

From the mind of Tom Gilliland, this twisted and unique world has inspired statues, figures, art, comics, and more. To commemorate everything geeky and ghastly, and in true in Court of the Dead fashion, we’re bringing you spine-chilling live content, game shows, giveaways, product discounts, and Sideshow rewards in a day-long celebration of the Underworld.

FREE REGISTRATION for the event begins on Friday, February 12.

What is Court of the Dead?

The universe is cruelly imbalanced. All of existence is mired in an endless battle between Heaven and Hell, waged for longer than anyone can remember.

The war machines of both celestial realms turn on power stolen from mortal souls. Death himself is enslaved by the singular task of harvesting the dead, yet he yearns for a more noble purpose.

Compelled by the plight of the mortals, Death creates the Court of the Dead. This unlikely council is intended to spark his rebellious ambition to set in motion a daring plan to end the war.

Facing the forces of Heaven and Hell will not be easy. Death and his allies must not only defeat those mightier, but also tame their own destructive nature.  To achieve their noble goal of peace and balance, they will have to…

Rise. Conquer. Rule.

The game shows include Cobbled Cosplay and a scary-good episode of Win, Lose, or Die. You can enter for your chance to be a contestant on one of these shows HERE.

Cobbled Cosplay

If you love costumes, makeup, and watching people stress out over time constraints and fashion faux-pas, Cobbled Cosplay is the one for you. Contestants will play by proxy, aligning themselves with one of our two cosplayers, Amy Chase and Andrew Ceco, one of whom will be crowned Court of the Dead Cobbled Cosplay champion!

Win, Lose, or DIE

If you like Dungeons and Dragons and horror stories, Win, Lose, or Die is the one for you! This is a cutthroat Choose Your Own Adventure style game that results in somebody either going home with all the glory (an amazing prize!) or DYING (losing their shot at the prize).  If any or all of these game shows sound fun to you, you can register for a chance to play—and a chance to win—during Court of the Dead Day HERE.

If you want to brush up on your Court of the Dead knowledge before the big day, be sure to watch School of the Dead, an episodic video essay series chronicling the characters and content from this expansive world. A new episode drops every Friday.
