Think horror movies are scary? Try investigating one in real life. Join veteran Crime Scene Investigator Rebekah Hollingsworth as she takes horror off the screen and into reality. In this up-close look at her work, you’ll walk through an actual crime scene and explore the gruesome, shocking, and sometimes bizarre details that CSI teams face every day. If you love horror, true crime, or just want to know what really happens when the scene is sealed off and the gloves go on—this is an experience you won’t want to miss.
 

Due to the graphic nature of this event, it will be held in Parlor B in Berglund Hall. Only 48 tickets will be available for this event, so be sure to get them while you can! This is an "ADD ON TICKET", a ticket for admission to Screamiverse Expo is still required.

Step beyond the jump-scare and into the real world of Death Investigation. Join Crime Scene Investigator Rebekah Hollingsworth as she guides you through what really happens when a life ends unexpectedly; you’ll discover how investigators read a scene, interpret the body, and separate fact from Hollywood fiction. We’ll break down common myths, surprising truths, and the small details that speak louder than any ghost story. Whether you’re a writer, a horror fan, or just fascinated by the macabre side of science, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for the stories the dead can tell, if you know how to listen.

Out-of-work actor Daniel Hillard will do anything for his kids. After losing custody in a messy divorce, he creates the kindly alter ego of Scottish nanny Euphegenia Doubtfire in a desperate attempt to stay in their lives. As his new character takes on a life of its own, Mrs. Doubtfire teaches Daniel more than he bargained for about how to be a father. A hysterical and heartfelt story about holding onto your loved ones against all odds, MRS. DOUBTFIRE is the musical comedy we need right now – one that proves we’re better together.

Known for his unmistakable, buttery baritone and timeless songs like “Long Black Train” and “Why Don’t We Just Dance,” Turner’s five No. 1 singles include “Your Man,” of which the official music video surpassed 233 million views. Currently, Turner has 6 billion career global streams. His debut album, Long Black Train, released 22 years ago and was certified Platinum by the RIAA with nearly 1.5M album sales, 1.4M track downloads, and over 331.2M life-to-date streams. The lead single of the same name was also certified 2x Platinum, making up over 1.1M track downloads and over 275.7M global streams. In July 2025, Turner celebrated the 20th Anniversary of his signature song "Your Man," and in 2021 released Your Man (Deluxe Edition) celebrating 15 years of Turner’s iconic double Platinum-selling album, as well as the reimagined video featuring his wife, Jennifer, who starred in the original video. 

 

Turner's latest release on MCA Records, This Country Music Thing, has acquired 10M release-to-date global streams and debuted Top 10 on the Country Albums chart. From this project, he's released "Two Steppin' On The Moon," which garnered him an invitation to perform for NASA astronauts, on the International Space Station, from Mission Control at Houston's Johnson Space Center. He was also asked by NBC's TODAY to perform "Unsung Hero" for Veterans Day, a song he wrote about his granddaddy who served in WWII. This past May, Turner released the official music video for “Unsung Hero,” which debuted on CMT and the Paramount Times Square Billboard in NYC.  

 

A native of South Carolina, Turner has been nominated for three GMA Dove Awards and won his first GMA Dove Award in 2021 for “I Saw The Light” featuring Sonya Isaacs, off his I Serve a Savior album. Grammy-nominated Turner has been awarded the Order of the Palmetto in his home state of South Carolina (2023), the highest civilian honor, and was inducted into the South Carolina Entertainment and Music Hall of Fame (2024). Turner released his first Greatest Hits album in fall of 2023 and is currently crisscrossing America on the This Country Music Thing Tour in support of his recent album release of the same name. To support music and arts education, he created The Josh Turner Scholarship Fund for the Arts to help students pursue their studies in these fields. More than 20 students have been recipients since the fund's inception. Turner and his wife Jennifer, whom he met when they were both students at Nashville’s Belmont University, have four sons.

Raised in Michigan and now based in Nashville, Billy Strings is known as one of music’s most compelling artists. Acclaimed for his boundary-pushing musicianship and dynamic live performances, Strings’ latest studio album, Highway Prayers—produced with Jon Brion (Fiona Apple, Mac Miller, Aimee Mann)—debuted at #1 on Billboard’s all-genre Top Album Sales chart, becoming the first bluegrass record in 22 years to achieve the feat. The album has been widely celebrated, with GQ calling Strings “the hottest roots-music phenomenon in decades” and Pitchfork praising him as “the bluegrass wunderkind [who] expands his palette, exploring new textures and emotional registers while staying true to his beloved genre.”

Following Highway Prayers, Strings released an exclusive Apple Music Nashville Sessions EP as well as Live at the Legion, a surprise collaborative album with renowned guitarist Bryan Sutton containing 20 traditional bluegrass and folk songs recorded live at Nashville’s American Legion Post 82. Since his 2017 debut, Strings has earned widespread recognition, including two Grammy Awards for Best Bluegrass Album, back-to-back Artist of the Year at the Americana Music Awards, Entertainer of the Year at the International Bluegrass Music Awards three years running, Best New Headliner at the 2022 Pollstar Awards and Breakthrough Artist of the Pandemic at the 2021 Pollstar Awards. Known for his electric live shows, Strings has performed countless sold-out dates worldwide and will continue to tour through this winter, including headline dates across the U.S., U.K. and Europe.
