# πŸŽƒ October Film Club \| Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person \(2023\) **A little something macabre for Halloween! πŸ§›β€β™€οΈ (Please read the registration rules below!!!)** Join us for an afternoon of cinema, coffee, and conversation as we watch *Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person* (2023), a Canadian dark comedy with an unusual take on vampire mythology. **About the film** Sasha is a young vampire with a serious problem: she's too sensitive to kill. When her frustrated parents cut off her blood supply, she meets Paul, a lonely teenager who might just have a solution to her predicament. Darkly funny, charming, and surprisingly tender, the film explores loneliness, empathy, and the difficulties of finding your place in the world. ## 🎬 What to expect After the Credits is a small, informal film club where watching the movie is only half the experience β€” the other half is talking about it! We usually gather around 10–20 movie lovers for a screening followed by an open discussion. No film education or special knowledge is required. Whether you're a dedicated cinephile or simply curious about the movie, you're very welcome. Here's how our afternoon usually unfolds: * **Coffee & introductions:** Arrive, grab a coffee, and get to know some fellow movie lovers. * **Film introduction:** A brief introduction before we start the screening. * **Movie time!** We watch the film together. * **Coffee break & discussion:** After the screening, we take a short break before getting together to exchange impressions, interpretations, and questions. There's no right or wrong way to interpret a film. Different perspectives are encouraged, and disagreement is always welcome! ## πŸ–€ Halloween dress code Since we're meeting just before Halloween, let's make **black our theme for the day**. Nothing elaborate required β€” just wear something black if you'd like to join in. And if you're feeling more adventurous, you're welcome to dress as a movie character instead! ## πŸ“ When & where **Date:** Sunday, October 25, 2026 **Time:** 4:00 p.m. **Location:** 50 High Park Ave., TV Room (Clubhouse), Toronto ## 🎟️ Registration β€” please read! **A Meetup RSVP does not reserve your seat.** We have limited capacity, so everyone attending must register through Eventbrite: [https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/film-club-humanist-vampire-seeking-consenting-suicidal-person-2023-tickets-2003056783761?aff=oddtdtcreator](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/film-club-humanist-vampire-seeking-consenting-suicidal-person-2023-tickets-2003056783761?aff=oddtdtcreator) ## πŸ’› Stay connected After the Credits also organizes casual outings to Toronto cinemas, festivals, and special screenings.

# πŸ‘» Ghost Tour: The Exhibition Grounds 🎑 ### Toronto's Haunted Fairgrounds, Dark History & One Building I Don't Like Being Near The Exhibition Grounds have spent more than a century hosting crowds, celebrations, soldiers, shows, and some of Toronto's biggest events. But underneath all that history is a darker side. The Exhibition Grounds are said to be **one of the most haunted places in Toronto** β€” and I'll be honest: **this is the one place on my ghost walks that genuinely scares me.** There's something about the atmosphere here. Some buildings have an energy that feels different. And when you know what happened in them, it's hard not to look at them a little differently. On this evening ghost walk, we'll explore the grounds and hear stories of **soldiers, settlers, performers, animals, tragedies, and people who may never have completely left.** This isn't just about trying to scare you. It's about discovering the strange history hiding underneath one of Toronto's most familiar landmarks. πŸ“± Don't forget to join our **WhatsApp Group – [CLICK HERE](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc)** *** ## πŸ‘» What We'll Explore We'll begin outside **Medieval Times** and make our way across the Exhibition Grounds toward the Princes' Gates. Along the way, we'll hear stories connected to: * 🏚️ **The General Service Building** * πŸ’€ **The Stanley Barracks** β€” the building that genuinely creeps me out * 🐎 **The Horse Palace** * 🏠 **Scadding Cabin** * πŸ‘» Other strange stories, unexplained encounters, and haunted corners of the grounds We'll finish at the **Princes' Gates**. We'll keep a steady walking pace and **will not be entering any of the buildings**. *** ## πŸ•―οΈ Why This One Is Different I've done a lot of ghost walks around Toronto. **This is the one that actually makes me uncomfortable.** Maybe it's the history. Maybe it's the buildings. Maybe it's simply knowing what happened here and then standing there after dark. Whatever it is, the Exhibition Grounds have always felt different to me. So come prepared for some genuinely creepy stories β€” and maybe a few moments where we all wonder whether we should really be standing there. πŸ‘» *** ## 🧒 Meetup Details πŸ“ **Meetup Location:** In front of **Medieval Times** 🫎 **Look for me in my Moose Hat!** ⏰ **Meetup Time:** **6:30 PM sharp** I will only wait **5 minutes**. **Early is on time. On time is late.** πŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈ **Pace:** Steady walking pace 🏁 **End Point:** **Princes' Gates** *** ## 🎟️ Meetup Fee **$10 cash in person or e-transfer** πŸ“§ **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** This is a **curated ghost-walking experience**, rather than one of our regular social walks. The route, stories, and history have been researched and brought together specifically for this experience. The fee helps support the time and work that goes into creating these walks. *** ## πŸŽ’ What to Bring πŸ‘Ÿ Comfortable walking shoes πŸ§₯ Weather-appropriate clothing πŸ’§ Water πŸ“± Your phone for photos And maybe… don't wander off by yourself. πŸ‘» *** ## 🌈 Who Is This For? This experience is great for: * πŸ‘» People who love ghost stories * πŸ™οΈ Anyone fascinated by Toronto's darker history * πŸ•―οΈ Fans of the strange and unexplained * 🎑 People who want to see the Exhibition Grounds differently * 🚢 Anyone looking for something unusual to do on an evening out * 😈 People who like being scared β€” at least a little You don't have to believe in ghosts. **You just have to be willing to walk into the dark with us.** *** **REMEMBER:** You're welcome to RSVP ahead of time or just show up on the day if you're unsure about your schedule. Sometimes things happen and events may need to be cancelled or changed, so please keep an eye on the event page for updates. πŸ‘€ **Organizer: Mathew** Questions? Post on the event wall or email: πŸ“§ **torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com** **Come for the history.** **Stay for the ghost stories.** **And try not to look too closely at the buildings.** πŸ‘»
