It is official! February 4th is I Heart Horror Day! To celebrate this anti-Valentine's Day holiday, the Brothers Cuneo (Chris and Greg) will be promoting a show on that very day at the VFW Post 4699, located at 575 Jernee Mill Rd. in Sayreville, New Jersey. This location is directly across from the infamous Starland Ballroom. February 4th also happens to be the birthdays of two horror icons, George Romero and Alice Cooper. There will be vendors, live music, author signings, food, raffles and most likely a few more surprises judging on how invested the brothers are into this project.

All of the proceeds will be going to Deborah Heart & Lung Center, located at 200 Trenton Rd. in Browns Mills, New Jersey. February is also American Heart Month and what makes this benefit especially heart-felt is that George Romero passed away form lung disease. Part of their tag line is "Because Heart & Lung Disease is What's Really Scary!"

The event is $13 for adults and $5 for kids aged 5 thru 12 and takes place this Saturday from 12pm until 6pm. Scheduled to perform are The Gunsmoke Sinners, Who Killed Marilyn?, Altar, The Accelerators, Mikell's Plot and Kings Of Rock. The latter band is an Alice Cooper Tribute band that Chris Cuneo described as having many costume changes. DJ Markus will be setting the mood with turntable versatility. Acting as MC for the event will be the legendary Psycho Steve. You can follow this event on Instagram @ihearthorror24, Facebook @ IHeartHorror24 or you can contact the Brothers Cuneo directly at ihh2023@yahoo.com .
