Ticketed event with complimentary beer, wine or soft drink on arrival & food included. Cash bar.

Dress code: Dress as your Shadow Self


This day can be seen as a liminal time, when the boundary between this world and the Otherworld is thinned.  A time when it was traditionally believed that departed souls wandered the earth until All Saints' Day. All Hallows' Eve provided one last chance for the dead to gain vengeance on their enemies before moving to the next world. In order to avoid being recognized by any soul that might be seeking such vengeance, people would don masks or costumes.
