We’re thrilled to welcome Emmy® Award-winning puppeteer, producer, director, puppet fabricator, set designer, and lighting director Bill Diamond to Hudson Valley Horror Fest 2025!
With a career spanning over four decades, Bill has brought unforgettable characters and worlds to life through his mastery of practical effects and puppetry. His journey has taken him from working alongside legends like Jim Henson on classics such as The Muppets, The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and Fraggle Rock, to creating original works that have earned devoted cult followings.
Bill’s impressive credits also include Little Shop of Horrors, Sesame Street, and most recently serving as associate producer and set designer for Damien Leone’s Terrifier 3—even designing and building sets for the film. This weekend, fans can meet Bill in person for autographs, selfies, and the chance to own signed, screen-used props from Terrifier 3!
From the whimsical worlds of Henson’s creations to the chilling sets of modern horror, Bill Diamond’s artistry bridges nostalgia, craftsmanship, and innovation. Don’t miss your chance to hear his stories, see his creations up close, and celebrate the magic of movie-making with one of the industry’s true masters.
