The Shaun Luu Horror Fest is an annual music/movie festival held in memory of Shaun Luu. Shaun passed away in June of 2005 after a fight with brain cancer. Shaun was an amazing guy who was a big part of the Syracuse, NY hardcore/metal community. He sang for Word As A Virus and was a constant face in the crowd at pretty much every kind of show around here. He meant a lot to a lot of people and the fest is our way of remembering him and giving something back.

All the money made gets donated in Shaun's name to fight cancer. The first few years of the festival the money was donated to the American Cancer Society. Last year we decided that the money should stay local so we set up a few funds at University Hospital/Golisano Childrens Hospital in Shaun's name. One of the funds is to support brain cancer treatment and research at University Hospital, one fund is to get some new games and things for the activity room on the cancer ward in the childrens hospital (the current activity room is run down and sparse...there are kids there that spend months stuck in the hospital, sick, and depressed as hell...it'd be nice to get some better things in there for them. Keeping peoples spirits up can make all the difference in fighting a disease), and the last fund is to raise money to build a new nurses station in the new childrens hospital that will be marked in memory of Shaun.

The Shaun Luu Horror Fest is a benefit/memorial that incorporates Shaun's love of both horror/b-movies and hardcore/punk/metal/doom etc. It's always a good time, for a good cause. Come out and have fun!
