I thoroughly enjoyed the festival, meeting so many of my father’s fans, as well as my fellow guests … The people are lovely, and the setting gorgeous … Abertoir should be on any horror fan’s bucket list!

Abertoir has the best movies, the best fans, the best Tromettes and the best sheep of any festival that Toxie and I have attended. Troma has changed it’s name to Trom-Abertoir!

Many congratulations on the way you have developed your splendid festival. I think you have shown great imagination and flair in doing so and I wish you every success with it in the future …

Our midnight walk through the ruins of the castle and adjoining graveyard, under a full moon, was not only wonderfully spooky but like travelling back through time…

Herschell Gordon Lewis

a festival that combines the three elements any guest hopes to have … a varied and entertaining program, consideration for the time of both guests and attendees, and a stimulating series of events!

a great little festival … delivers not only the best of contemporary horror from the festival circuit, but also putting those films in a context, curating events that pay tribute to past masters…

Fabio Frizzi

a group of serious professionals who are growing, year after year, a unique event, full of culture and entertainment, a magical region such as Wales and the severe and charming Irish Sea …
