This year the Syfy Digital Press Tour was held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The night started with dinner in C5 Restaurant, inside the Royal Ontario Museum, where the press got some time to hang out with some of the Syfy stars. In attendance were Sam Witwer, Sam Huntington, Meaghan Rath, and Kristen Hager from Being Human, Lucas Bryant, Eric Balfour, and Adam "Edge" Copeland from Haven, and Jesse Rath (Meaghan's brother) from Defiance.

This year SciFi Vision once again attended the Syfy Digital Press Tour, this time in Toronto, Ontairo, Canada. We not only hung out with the stars of Haven and Being Human, but we also got to visit the sets of the upcoming series Defiance, as well as Warehouse 13.

In the coming days, look for full coverage of the event, including reviews and tons of photos. You can also find a lot of the photos I took at Twitter via @scifivision, which will eventually all go in the gallery on this site.

For now, you can check out the stream below of what the press (including myself) was saying during the event, including all the photos and videos that were posted.

There's still more San Diego Comic-Con coverage on the way, but for now, here are some great shots from the Falling Skies press room, taken by Christiane Elin!

Also the Syfy Comic-Con photos for Warehouse 13 and Alphas are also up in the Comic-Con gallery.

Keep checking back for more updates!

It was a bright and sunny weekend in late June when the horror started. The quiet Lakeside Chalet sat pristinely against a bright blue, cloud streaked sky, quiet and still. Little did anyone know that in the bowels of that building an abnormal world was churning.

Once inside the chalet a quick stop at the hotel desk led me down a long white hallway that ended at a cross hall. This little area, taken over by the registration table and small souvenir stand didn't seem like much. There were a few volunteers checking people in, giving them their wristbands that allowed admittance to the convention. It wasn't until I saw a zombie walk past me and post a sign on one of the closed doors proclaiming a zombie hunt would take place inside that I started to feel like there was something more going on.
