Fans of corseted cosplay and magical machines make their way to the Vermont Steampunk Expo, a convention dedicated to Victorian-era fantasy. There are Gilded Age costumes, steam-powered contraptions and dastardly druids galore at this gathering for enthusiasts who like their fabulism with a side of greasy gears and shiny sprockets. Attendees of all ages can learn how to poison their enemies (theoretically, of course), fire a steam-powered cannon, and face off against their friends in a tea and biscuit duel.
