Blood On The Clocktower

Blood On The Clocktower

Sun, Sep 6, 1:00 PM
From Gamers @ The Story Sanctuary

**We're building a new community for people who love to play games: a shared love of tabletop RPGs, board games, hobby chat and good company.** We aim to create a warm, welcoming, and respectful group where people can relax, share interests, and enjoy gaming together. Led by neurodivergent people, we're neuro-affirming and LGBTQIA+-affirming. Join us for the first of what we hope will become a regular series of social deduction afternoons at the TSS. And we're kicking things off with Blood on the Clocktower. If you've played the likes of Mafia and Werewolf then you'll love sniffing out who the demon in the group is (unless it's you of course!). Places are limited due to the nature of the game so please book in advance - tickets are on sale now. **BLOOD ON THE CLOCK TOWER - £5** https://events.humanitix.com/blood-on-the-clocktower-kn3qqd4j/tickets **Practical Details:** Our building is not (yet) fully accessible, there are steps down to the toilets which are not suitable for wheelchair users or those who need assistance. There are no shops in the immediate vicinity - tea (including herbals), coffee, water available + crisps and biscuits but please bring food/snacks if you think you will need it! And please note that we are a nut-free venue.

From OverBoard London - games, films, comics & geek culture
4.8

Join OverBoard to play the brilliant social deduction game Blood on the Clocktower in person at the brand new board game cafe Otter Chaos in Brixton. If you haven’t heard of Blood on the Clocktower before it is an evolution of classic party games like Mafia/Werewolf where a hidden evil team takes on the good team by lying and killing. The good team has a few tricks up their sleeve but will have to work together to deduce who the evil doers are in their midst. **This is a beginner friendly event so no experience with the game is necessary.** Please note that a gaming cover charge of \~£5 will be payable by each attendee to the venue so that we can make use of the space. We also encourage you to buy food and drink from the bar so we are supporting the business (I can highly recommend their pizzas!) If you want to know more about the rules of the game check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-aZP47Nm9g

Writing Group (LIVE at the All Good Bookshop)

Writing Group (LIVE at the All Good Bookshop)

Wed, Sep 9, 6:00 PM
From All Good Bookshop Writing Group
4.7

We're the All Good Bookshop writing group - we've been around for 10 years now. We offer writing feedback and discussion, whatever your level. Never been before? That's fine. Can only come once in a while? That's fine. Want to come regularly? That's fine. While we're predominantly narrative-based, any type of writing is welcome. Fiction, non-fiction, screenplays, novels, short-stories... bring it along and see if it fits. The cost is £5 to join us. Half of this goes to the bookshop and the other half goes towards snacks/drinks for everyone. Pay when you get there. (If you're having any financial problems, feel free to have a discreet chat with Chris about it). HOW IT WORKS First, we do introductions, which cover: 1 - Who you are 2 - What kind of thing you write 3 - What you're working on 4 - What you've done in the last two weeks. Then we find out who has stuff to read out (1,000 - 2,000 words), and who has questions/discussion points. If you'd prefer to do written hand-outs, you can as well. We then run through as many people as we can fit in, so they can read out or run through a discussion point. The group is run by Chris Brosnahan, an experienced writer and a long-running facilitator of writing groups. HOUSE RULES 1 - No egos. Everyone's stuff is up for criticism/feedback. 2 - Be constructive. We're not a review group - we're trying to help each other improve. 3\. No pressure\. You can turn up and just observe if you want \- you're not under pressure to read out or feed back\. 4 - We do our best to be a safe space. You don't know the backgrounds of everyone in the room. If you're going to read something that might be problematic or emotionally difficult, talk about it first - and if you're unsure, ask. 5 - We do our best to be a safe space. For particularly graphic scenes, please discuss in advance. A reminder that listening to erotica is, in itself, a sex act, and needs the enthusiastic consent of everyone involved. 6 - Content warnings apply. This doesn't just mean things like sex or violence. It also includes things like abuse, long-term illness, death - think of things that someone may find difficult if they're dealing with at the moment. We do our best to be a safe space. 7 - If you're struggling with anything being read, you can take a break without any justification or questions. 8 - Banned question: "Is this based on your own life?" - it doesn't add anything and can make discussion awkward. Please don't ask it. 9 - Let other people talk. You'll get your chance to feedback or ask questions, but it can be all too easy to talk over people. You also don't need to respond to every piece of feedback. 10 - Keep it respectful. Keep it friendly. Any problems? Get in touch and ask.

The Great Gathering

The Great Gathering

Wed, Sep 16, 5:00 PM
From Journey of Truth Meetup Group London
4.8

This is not a workshop or retreat in the traditional sense. **This is a custodial gathering:** a handoff of a finished map of my work to people who want to steward it, test it, and carry it forward through their own lives and work. With this map you’ll get a kind of **orientation** most systems don’t provide in one coherent frame: where you are, what kind of system this is, and why so many inherited explanations never quite fit. This gathering is for people who are done with inherited stories, whether religious, New Age spirituality, "we're living in a simulation" framings, love-and-light ascension cosmologies, or fear-based narratives like prison planet and soul trap theories. This is not for people seeking comfort, reassurance, or salvation. If you’re still looking for an external authority to tell you you’re special, chosen, or above others, this won’t be the crowd for you. If you already know you’re not here to be rescued, activated, upgraded, or cast into a starring role, and you’re not looking for gods, elites, archons, saviors, or any new narrative that replaces responsibility, then you’ll be in good company. The map I hand off is practical. It changes how you interpret your experience because it gives you a way to orient yourself within the system. Once you’ve tested it, it’s difficult to go back to the old frames. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **THE GREAT GATHERING** **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **Where:** Scottish Highlands, Loch Ness **When:** Sept 16–20, 2026 (5 days / 4 nights) **How many:** 30–40 people maximum During these five days, I will be presenting the majority of the material from my forthcoming book (publishing later in 2026). This is the first place where the full model will be presented in person, in sequence, and in full, before publication. Over two decades of out-of-body exploration, direct observation, and first-principles analysis, I’ve mapped what I call the **Earth-Afterlife Continuum (EAC)**: the system within which human life, death, and post-death experience occur. This gathering is about understanding that system clearly, without religion, spirituality, fear narratives, or inherited metaphysics layered on top. With this map, you’re not being given something new to believe. You’re being given the orientation you should have had from the start. The kind of understanding an advanced, integrated human collective would teach their children from a young age. In such a culture, people would be given a simple, practical map of reality from a young age, not as belief or spirituality, but as orientation. They would learn that Earth sits at the centre of a human system that includes afterlife environments that look almost indentical to physical life but aren't biological and that death is a shift into these nearby environments that still feel very real and very human. They would understand that what happens after death isn’t decided by belief, goodness, or allegiance to a story, but by what a person is carrying inside themselves, such as, unfinished fear, clarity, stability, or confusion. Movement through the system would be explained in plain terms: unresolved patterns hold you in place, self-honesty creates movement, and avoidance creates loops. The goal wouldn’t be comfort or certainty, but knowing where you are, how the system behaves, and how to meet life, and death, without religion, mythology, fear narratives, or inherited metaphysics. My journeys beyond the body have led me to understand what many call “afterlife realms” not as symbolic heavens or hells, but as real, functional environments within a larger, integrated system. An integrated human collective would not have framed death the way we do. There would have been no need for a metaphysical afterlife narrative. Life would simply have continued as the limits of physical experience ended. Post-Earth environments across different levels of embodiment would have been normal rather than mystical. The mechanics for movement through the EAC appear governed by a feedback mechanism I've come to see as a mirror system that does not require gatekeepers, judges, cosmic administrators, or beliefs. Movement occurs through self-recognition. The system continuously reflects a being’s internal state back to them as lived conditions. This is why the system works regardless of belief. You can be atheist, religious, spiritual, fearful, loving, cynical, or idealistic. None of that stops the mechanism. What matters is how a being responds to its own reflection. Reconciliation creates motion, while denial creates loops. During the gathering I will take you deep into the full architecture and mechanics of the EAC as I have come to observe them through decades of out-of-body exploration. I will also discuss a feature of the system that presents as a **pre-physical informational substrate** that updates ahead of physical events. Bodies, environments, and long-term conditions show changes in this layer before anything manifests in space-time. This helps make sense of why dreams, OBEs, and non-ordinary awareness often detect illness, recovery, or major life shifts before they manifest physically. This upstream layer matters because it’s where causation first becomes visible. What you experience in physical life rarely begins at the physical level. Choices, habits, unresolved stress, relational patterns, and long-standing emotional loads register here first, often long before they harden into symptoms or events. When people sense something is “off” months or years before a diagnosis, when a relationship begins to feel finished before it actually ends, or when a life direction collapses internally before anything changes on the outside, they’re encountering this layer. It’s not predictive in a mystical sense; it’s upstream in a mechanical one - closer to cause than effect. Understanding this gives you practical leverage: not to control outcomes, but to recognize where change is already underway and respond earlier, more honestly, and with less damage than waiting for physical reality to force the issue. Based on everything I’ve learned, I’ve developed a reconciliation and integration method designed to function at all levels of the EAC. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **THE FIELD INTEGRATION METHOD (FIM)** **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** FIM grew out of years of work with forgiveness practices, altered-state research, and field awareness. After teaching Ho‘oponopono and other reconciliation practices, it became clear that forgiveness was only one part of a larger process: people were not just letting go of pain; they were integrating fragmented parts of themselves. The more field mechanics became visible, the more a new system took shape, one that doesn’t rely on cosmology, spiritual hierarchy, or moral frames. It focuses on what reliably produces change: self-reflection, emotional honesty, somatic completion, and restoring stability in the field. FIM does not depend on spirituality, metaphysics, mysticism, or cosmology. It works because human experience follows mirror-based mechanics. Wherever self-reflection is avoided, patterns repeat. Wherever integration occurs, patterns dissolve. **FIM In Everyday Life, Work, and Settings** Some participants will recognise how this work applies directly to their daily lives and relationships. Others may see its relevance to hospice settings, death-doula work, vigils, or end-of-life care, not as helpers trying to fix or rescue, but as regulated presences within highly sensitive environments. Those already engaged in time-space exploration or retrieval-type work will gain a clearer understanding of boundaries, ethics, and mechanics, and why regulation matters more than intention. At its core, this gathering is about learning how to stand inside reality without mythology, panic, or bypass, and seeing what becomes possible when reflection is met with honesty rather than avoidance. What makes FIM effective across these contexts is that it does not require a cosmology, a belief about the afterlife, or a spiritual identity. It works mechanically, not narratively. **For everyday life and relationships**, FIM is a way of meeting situations without adding distortion. Rather than fixing, rescuing, blaming, or bypassing, the practitioner takes responsibility for their own position in the shared field of a situation. When something arises - tension with another person, conflict, fear, injustice, or uncertainty - the work begins by stabilising yourself while clearing personal reactions, projections, and noise. From that stable stance, the field is allowed to reorganise without coercion. The method is not about changing others or enforcing outcomes, but about holding contact without separation so that clarity, regulation, and appropriate action can emerge on their own. Nothing mystical is required. You are not controlling reality - you are simply no longer feeding the loop. **For people active in time-space work** \- OBEs\, retrievals\, liminal encounters \- FIM provides something that is often missing: a way to engage without becoming entangled\. Many people enter retrieval\-type situations accidentally and then burn out\, over\-identify\, or retreat into belief structures to cope\. FIM reframes the role entirely\. The practitioner is not rescuing\, fixing\, persuading\, or confronting\. They are stabilising the field by integrating what is resonant in themselves\. That shift alone changes the interaction and prevents a common failure mode\, where the practitioner becomes destabilised by the environment they are trying to help\. **For hospice and death-doula pathways**, the fit is even more direct. These roles sit at the boundary between regulation and collapse. People approaching death are often already partially decoupled from space-time: fear intensifies, identity loosens, time distorts, and unfinished emotional loops surface. Traditional support models tend to reassure, distract, or spiritually bypass. FIM does none of these. Instead, the method regulates the practitioner’s field so they do not amplify fear, projection, or avoidance. They can remain present without imposing meaning, calming without suppressing truth, and accompanying without leading. In this way, the practitioner becomes part of the missing environmental regulation—without becoming an authority, a guide, or a saviour. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **THE HIGHLANDS & LOCH NESS** **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** This work is demanding, and will require regulation, honesty, and time outdoors, which is why I chose the Scottish Highlands and Loch Ness. Included in the daily schedule will be guided group walks through the landscape, including personal time in nature for deep nervous system regulation. The gathering will conclude with a special **handoff ceremony** on the shores of Loch Ness, marking the formal passing of the work. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **TICKETS FOR ATTENANCE** **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **Standard ticket:** £350 **Consession ticket for low incomes:** £250 Tickets must be purchased 45-days before the gathering by bank transfer, **cut off date for booking attendance** is August 1st, 2026.

All the below transport links are about an hour's drive from Inverness to Glenmoriston. The most direct public transport option once you arrive to Inverness is local taxi or the **Scottish Citylink 917 bus**, which passes near Glenmoriston (email for more details). **The nearest airport** **is Inverness Airport (INV)**, which receives arrivals from UK hubs like London (Gatwick, Luton, Heathrow), Bristol, Manchester, and Birmingham, alongside Scottish islands (Kirkwall, Stornoway, Sumburgh) and international connections from Amsterdam (AMS). Key airlines include easyJet, Loganair, British Airways, and KLM. **Another option for air travel is** Edinburgh Airport (EDI). Onward travel from Edinburgh Airport to Inverness is by bus, train, or car, as there are no direct flights between Edinburgh and Inverness. Buses offer the most direct and affordable public transport from the airport, while trains require a transfer in Edinburgh or Perth. **Inverness train station** links to several UK regions, with primary connections from the Scottish Central Belt ([Edinburgh](https://www.google.com/search?q=Edinburgh&client=firefox-b-d&hs=UdKp&sca_esv=8ed7b9c9fed93e72&biw=1461&bih=685&sxsrf=ANbL-n7SEcuUg0MYrINp3Qvj7GoPTqyo0w%3A1770808577506&ei=AWWMafTAHtKWhbIP56aC6AQ&ved=2ahUKEwify96HqdGSAxXIQUEAHQhMFa0QgK4QegQIARAB&uact=5&oq=what+uk+regions+link+to+inverness+train+station&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiL3doYXQgdWsgcmVnaW9ucyBsaW5rIHRvIGludmVybmVzcyB0cmFpbiBzdGF0aW9uMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGJ8FMgUQIRifBTIFECEYnwUyBRAhGJ8FMgUQIRifBTIFECEYnwUyBRAhGJ8FMgUQIRifBUicyQFQrT5Y7MMBcAt4AZABAJgBfKAB9yiqAQUzNy4yMLgBA8gBAPgBAZgCRKAC_ivCAgoQABhHGNYEGLADwgIEECMYJ8ICCxAAGIAEGIoFGJECwgIQEC4YgAQYigUYQxixAxiDAcICEBAAGIAEGIoFGEMYsQMYgwHCAgsQLhiABBixAxiDAcICDhAuGIAEGIoFGLEDGIMBwgIOEAAYgAQYigUYsQMYgwHCAgoQIxieBhjwBRgnwgIKEAAYgAQYigUYQ8ICCBAAGIAEGLEDwgIFEAAYgATCAg0QABiABBiKBRhDGMkDwgILEAAYgAQYigUYkgPCAgoQIxjwBRieBhgnwgIOEC4YgAQYsQMYxwEY0QPCAgUQLhiABMICDRAuGIAEGMcBGNEDGArCAgoQABiABBgUGIcCwgIGEAAYFhgewgILEAAYgAQYigUYhgPCAgUQABjvBcICBBAhGBXCAgcQIRgKGKABmAMAiAYBkAYIkgcFNDEuMjegB66hA7IHBTMwLjI3uAfUK8IHBzAuMzMuMzXIB8kBgAgB&sclient=gws-wiz-serp)/[Glasgow](https://www.google.com/search?q=Glasgow&client=firefox-b-d&hs=UdKp&sca_esv=8ed7b9c9fed93e72&biw=1461&bih=685&sxsrf=ANbL-n7SEcuUg0MYrINp3Qvj7GoPTqyo0w%3A1770808577506&ei=AWWMafTAHtKWhbIP56aC6AQ&ved=2ahUKEwify96HqdGSAxXIQUEAHQhMFa0QgK4QegQIARAC&uact=5&oq=what+uk+regions+link+to+inverness+train+station&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiL3doYXQgdWsgcmVnaW9ucyBsaW5rIHRvIGludmVybmVzcyB0cmFpbiBzdGF0aW9uMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGJ8FMgUQIRifBTIFECEYnwUyBRAhGJ8FMgUQIRifBTIFECEYnwUyBRAhGJ8FMgUQIRifBUicyQFQrT5Y7MMBcAt4AZABAJgBfKAB9yiqAQUzNy4yMLgBA8gBAPgBAZgCRKAC_ivCAgoQABhHGNYEGLADwgIEECMYJ8ICCxAAGIAEGIoFGJECwgIQEC4YgAQYigUYQxixAxiDAcICEBAAGIAEGIoFGEMYsQMYgwHCAgsQLhiABBixAxiDAcICDhAuGIAEGIoFGLEDGIMBwgIOEAAYgAQYigUYsQMYgwHCAgoQIxieBhjwBRgnwgIKEAAYgAQYigUYQ8ICCBAAGIAEGLEDwgIFEAAYgATCAg0QABiABBiKBRhDGMkDwgILEAAYgAQYigUYkgPCAgoQIxjwBRieBhgnwgIOEC4YgAQYsQMYxwEY0QPCAgUQLhiABMICDRAuGIAEGMcBGNEDGArCAgoQABiABBgUGIcCwgIGEAAYFhgewgILEAAYgAQYigUYhgPCAgUQABjvBcICBBAhGBXCAgcQIRgKGKABmAMAiAYBkAYIkgcFNDEuMjegB66hA7IHBTMwLjI3uAfUK8IHBzAuMzMuMzXIB8kBgAgB&sclient=gws-wiz-serp)) via ScotRail and direct LNER services from London/East Coast. **Inverness bus station** located at Margaret Street, is primarily served by major national and regional coach operators, including: **[Scottish Citylink](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Scottish+Citylink&mstk=AUtExfCWRhnH4Gx4HEHAZDDpRW3MJiU0Cl9AZTl5CxWTDNpeEPTI_KuNxzlxzt8lsyhGCPJjs4DH85WJlDCdwG9akQh22pOOh7qPU7Vaih8i8SitY418TYyFlEsNAjsbvUIzssIBANxFK4jeeRwfL05SzdqwdyO1qzrSgyJCp1oxWBUzkaonnKA5nABxiVihbgNc5t6JrQ-RC4bG2B4xHU-guBvcsZd2g_1FITBfUOXUAk8q8HTeJCZXZCduLfXmL2R2wBkJ13-_TN0ZWaPKk2RyhQla&csui=3&ved=2ahUKEwif8NCCp9GSAxVOQUEAHZ2GHYwQgK4QegQIARAC)**, **[Megabus](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Megabus&mstk=AUtExfCWRhnH4Gx4HEHAZDDpRW3MJiU0Cl9AZTl5CxWTDNpeEPTI_KuNxzlxzt8lsyhGCPJjs4DH85WJlDCdwG9akQh22pOOh7qPU7Vaih8i8SitY418TYyFlEsNAjsbvUIzssIBANxFK4jeeRwfL05SzdqwdyO1qzrSgyJCp1oxWBUzkaonnKA5nABxiVihbgNc5t6JrQ-RC4bG2B4xHU-guBvcsZd2g_1FITBfUOXUAk8q8HTeJCZXZCduLfXmL2R2wBkJ13-_TN0ZWaPKk2RyhQla&csui=3&ved=2ahUKEwif8NCCp9GSAxVOQUEAHZ2GHYwQgK4QegQIARAD)**, **[Stagecoach](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Stagecoach&mstk=AUtExfCWRhnH4Gx4HEHAZDDpRW3MJiU0Cl9AZTl5CxWTDNpeEPTI_KuNxzlxzt8lsyhGCPJjs4DH85WJlDCdwG9akQh22pOOh7qPU7Vaih8i8SitY418TYyFlEsNAjsbvUIzssIBANxFK4jeeRwfL05SzdqwdyO1qzrSgyJCp1oxWBUzkaonnKA5nABxiVihbgNc5t6JrQ-RC4bG2B4xHU-guBvcsZd2g_1FITBfUOXUAk8q8HTeJCZXZCduLfXmL2R2wBkJ13-_TN0ZWaPKk2RyhQla&csui=3&ved=2ahUKEwif8NCCp9GSAxVOQUEAHZ2GHYwQgK4QegQIARAE)**, **[FlixBus](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=FlixBus&mstk=AUtExfCWRhnH4Gx4HEHAZDDpRW3MJiU0Cl9AZTl5CxWTDNpeEPTI_KuNxzlxzt8lsyhGCPJjs4DH85WJlDCdwG9akQh22pOOh7qPU7Vaih8i8SitY418TYyFlEsNAjsbvUIzssIBANxFK4jeeRwfL05SzdqwdyO1qzrSgyJCp1oxWBUzkaonnKA5nABxiVihbgNc5t6JrQ-RC4bG2B4xHU-guBvcsZd2g_1FITBfUOXUAk8q8HTeJCZXZCduLfXmL2R2wBkJ13-_TN0ZWaPKk2RyhQla&csui=3&ved=2ahUKEwif8NCCp9GSAxVOQUEAHZ2GHYwQgK4QegQIARAF)**, and **[National Express](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=National+Express&mstk=AUtExfCWRhnH4Gx4HEHAZDDpRW3MJiU0Cl9AZTl5CxWTDNpeEPTI_KuNxzlxzt8lsyhGCPJjs4DH85WJlDCdwG9akQh22pOOh7qPU7Vaih8i8SitY418TYyFlEsNAjsbvUIzssIBANxFK4jeeRwfL05SzdqwdyO1qzrSgyJCp1oxWBUzkaonnKA5nABxiVihbgNc5t6JrQ-RC4bG2B4xHU-guBvcsZd2g_1FITBfUOXUAk8q8HTeJCZXZCduLfXmL2R2wBkJ13-_TN0ZWaPKk2RyhQla&csui=3&ved=2ahUKEwif8NCCp9GSAxVOQUEAHZ2GHYwQgK4QegQIARAG)**.

But if my younger self were deciding whether to attend this event, I’d do *whatever* it took to be in the room… including sleeping in a broom closet. So set comfort aside: book a twin room at the venue, or grab a bed at the hostel or a spot at the campsite - just don’t miss the chance to be in the room. **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **MEET YOUR HOST - FALCON ACAMESIS** **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** For over two decades, Falcon has worked at the intersection of altered-state research, consciousness exploration, and practical orientation. He is co-founder of PandoraStar, a brainwave-entrainment technology company, and has spent over 2-decades maintaining a disciplined out-of-body exploration practice. That work led to the development of what he calls the Earth-Afterlife Continuum (EAC), a coherent, non-religious map of the system within which human life, death, and post-death experience occur. For more than a decade, Falcon has also been an advanced practitioner of Ho‘oponopono. Over time, it became clear that forgiveness - while powerful - was only one expression of a deeper process. What people were actually doing when the work succeeded was integrating fragmented parts of themselves and stabilising the field around them. Out of that recognition, and informed by decades of out-of-body exploration and observation of post-death environments, the Field Integration Method (FIM) emerged. A secular, non-cosmological integration framework that does not require spiritual identity, doctrine, or metaphysical commitment. The Great Gathering marks a transition in Falcon's role: from researcher and teacher to elder and custodian of a completed map. The work being shared is no longer experimental. It has been tested across decades, across altered states, and across the most demanding human thresholds. This gathering represents the formal handoff of that map to those prepared to carry it forward. [Watch Falcon's Recent Webinar on Ho'oponopono](https://youtu.be/hSSmw0Aa5lo?si=ayvvr4s_qqbD7LCM)

LEVITICUS (2026) + DRINKS @ VUE

LEVITICUS (2026) + DRINKS @ VUE

Sat, Sep 5, 12:00 PM
From The London Horror Film Group
4.8

Details on getting tickets for movie + pre drinks below. **PREMISE** In writer-director Adrian Chiarella’s indelible debut feature, queer desire is not only a danger to one’s safety from the bigots that you live, work and pray with, but it’s also a supernatural affliction. We first see teens Naim (Joe Bird) and Ryan (Stacy Clausen) as they engage in a clandestine hang, that familiar dance of a play-fight leading into a kiss. For Naim, it’s a new world opening up, a reason to believe there might be something to be happy about in an otherwise dull new town with his warm yet clueless single mother (Mia Wasikowska). But when Naim sees Ryan engaging in a similar tryst with Hunter (Jeremy Blewitt), the son of the local preacher, he allows his heart to overrule his head and does something he’ll live to regret. Once their secret is out in the open, Ryan and Hunter are forced into a conversion-therapy ritual, led by a mysterious outsider. The boys initially laugh it off, rolling their eyes at his hokum, but something takes ahold of them and once it’s over they realise they’ve been cursed. In the world of Leviticus, the threat looks exactly like the person you desire the most, your No 1 crush wanting to crush your head in. No one else can see it and it only comes to you when you’re alone but it will keep coming until you’re dead. It’s a crafty spin on an often lazily derivative sub-genre – what if your queer desire had a demonic manifestation – and speaks to a familiar deep-rooted fear. It’s not only about the self-destruction such feelings might bring, but also what horrors you might inflict on someone else as well. If the feeling is mutual, you know you’ll be the last face they’ll see before they die, a cruel tragedy warping love to hate. Like It Follows, which it owes a heavy debt to, it can also be viewed as a story about HIV/Aids and the devastation that can come from desire. This feeling might kill us both, but how can we deny it? It lends the film not only a piercing sadness but also a swell of giddy, against-all-odds romance (love might actually tear us apart, but what if it’s worth the risk?). It would be too easy and too of the moment to dwell in the grim trauma of the story but, when ears aren’t being sliced and heads aren’t being decapitated, Chiarella leans into the epic star-crossed swoon of the story. Visually, he’s as adept at capturing the chilly horror of isolation as he is at capturing the soft-hued buzz of togetherness. Bird and Clausen have a sweet first-love chemistry in their scenes together, eyes darting around to check for safety followed by the warm rush of relief when they realise they just might be OK (an illicit bus handjob is as terrifying as any of the nasty attacks). It also makes us root for their survival even if we fear that might not be possible. While Chiarella sets up a formula we know well, he also tries to subvert it. So yes, there might be a scene where the characters try and track down the conversion therapy “healer” but no, it doesn’t go how you expect. He also avoids obvious Bible-thumping horror stereotypes with his portrayal of the town’s religious community, realising there’s something far scarier about vile homophobia emerging from warmer, seemingly well-meaning folk such as Naim’s loving mother – a reliably excellent, if underused, Wasikowska – who is painted as more than just a Carrie’s mother in Carrie-level zealot. Even at a wonderfully concise 86 minutes, the last act runs out of steam a little (as a longtime fan of The Thing, even I got a tad tired of the familiar “No, it’s me!” repetition), but then Chiarella manages to stick the landing quite perfectly. It’s a bold and bittersweet endnote sold with the help of a soaring song choice from Frank Ocean, the kind of punchy last scene that has you insisting others make the next screening (at a festival where so many film-makers don’t know how or when to cut to credits, this counts for a lot). In many increasingly overcrowded fields – trauma horror, curse horror, gay horror, *Sundance horror* – Leviticus stands tall.
