Cryptmas Con returns in 2026 for another round of Yuletide revelry, strange sounds, and mystical mischief! Spanning the breadth of the epic Southgate House Revival grounds, the concert hall offers a frosty-but-cozy lineup of live fantasy music and bespoke vendors, while the gaming tavern's TTRPG tables keep the dice rolling and the hot chocolate flowing. Our convention brings together dungeon synth, dark ambient, fantasy adventure, and all things wonderfully weird for an icy quest into the magical beyond. Come raise a glass, embrace the gloom, and brave the Winter wilds among friends, foes, and fellow travelers at the ultimate fantasy folkmoot!

Ervald is a fantasy and dungeon synth music project known for atmospheric, story-driven instrumental soundscapes
Faydark is Dark Fantasy Dungeon Synth from Columbus, Ohio. Inspired by Dungeons and Dragons, Legend (movie), R.A Salvatore novels and old-school Fantasy RPGs.

Representing the tortuous and unfaithful behavior of humanity's seemingly most sacred emotion, Herzsklave is the black metal brainchild of Kyvon — a dedicated dungeon synth solo project based in Fort Wayne, IN. Borrowing themes of anti-romanticism, self-loathing, anguish, and all forms of melancholia, Herzsklave's debut album "Anti-romantic Black Metal" poises Kyvon's musicality to a new standard of darkness and despair.

~ Herzsklave — a slave of the heart. Cursed to comb the North Eternal Wood, this phantom spends an eternity searching for a love that cannot — and will not — ever be. ~
Gloamwalker is a new voice in dungeon synth, exploring the spaces between light and shadow with a subtle, introspective touch. Centered on atmosphere and mood, the project leans into slow-building melodies, hazy textures, and a sense of quiet wandering. Gloamwalker doesn’t rush to impress—instead, it lingers in the gloaming, inviting listeners to drift through forgotten paths and fading memories. 
Weeping Amulet fantasy dungeon synth and flute music project based in Detroit, Michigan, created by artists Shawn Knight and Kelly Jean Caldwell.
Fermenting Forest is an ambient and dungeon synth music project
Prolonged Demise is an musical project from Louisville, Kentucky, that makes sepulchral dungeon synth.
Mountain Dew creates dungeon synth music.
