Our Halloween Party! 🎃 💀

"Cause this is thriller, thriller night!" Pick out your favorite costume and join us for a night of mischief and fun at 'Botanica Bar' located in Noho. Happy hour runs till 7pm. If there's interest, we can move about later to other places in the neighborhood.

Your contribution helps our meetup group stay active. My Venmo ID is @Peter-A-Carmody If you have questions or need to get in contact, my number is 917-769-2178.

Halloween Brunch at Lillie’s Victorian (Union Sq) 👻🎃

This place goes all out with their decorations! Last year, I held it at their affiliated restaurant (Oscar Wilde), but I think the food is better at Lillie’s 🍳🥪🥞🥗 Please see menu here: [Menu 👻](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/66e1e2e5439c1041648a62f1/t/6a63afb8f3997b0a26b1dee4/1784917947444/Brunch.pdf) 🍁✨🎃 I will require a $15 deposit to save your seat as the restaurant charges $15 for no-shows and I don’t want to get stuck with that fee. It will go toward your portion of the bill or be refunded if you cancel before 24 hours (or someone takes your spot). My Venmo is @Lisa-Landon-89 and I also have Zelle. I will wear something in theme with Halloween, but not a full costume. Feel free to do the same! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out! 👻☠️🎃

Halloween Murder Mystery Mixer

**\*GET TICKETS AT -** (\*Limited # save $5 by using discount code "5" at checkout.) *\*Ignore any references if you RSVP and it says you can pay organizer directly. This is a Meetup glitch they hopefully fix. This is a prepay event and only way to attend is to get ticket in advance at link above.* *\*\*Our events are co-organized by multiple groups so don't pay attention to the RSVPs. These events are consistently well attended. Members get tickets and don't RSVP.* **Our interactive murder mystery nights are a fun and different way to socialize on a Saturday evening! For each of these adventures, everyone at the party plays a role and everyone is a suspect! When you arrive our staff will be on hand to welcome you and give you a character to play in the story. No experience is necessary. It is designed to be fun and not super hard. During the night our host will narrate the chain of events that lead to the murder then it is up to you to solve the case!** **What to expect?** You will be given a character that may be the person who everyone is looking for or you may be the person who solves the mystery. (You will not know right away). Our hosts will set the mood and explain what you need to do which is pretty much relax and enjoy the party with all of the other guests who are playing characters too! **What's the story?** There is rave party in a decaying, haunted mansion that draws a mix of thrill-seekers, influencers, locals, and weirdos. The music’s thumping, the lights are flashing… and then someone dies. The **Blackthorn Mansion has been** abandoned for decades and has a dark history—rumors of occult rituals, disappearances, and a cursed family line. But tonight, it’s the backdrop for an exclusive, invite-only rave. Everyone is masked, mysterious, and hiding something. At the height of the night, just before the DJ drops a new track, a guest collapses—**murdered**. The mansion is on lockdown, and no one leaves until the killer is unmasked. Everyone has a motive. Some even came looking for revenge. FAQs: **Can I come alone?** Yes 90% of those attending will likely register on their own but you are invited to bring as many guests as you would like just register for that amount. **Age-specific?** All are welcome 21 and over. **How much?** $20-$30 depending upon how early you purchase. NOT sold at door. Game limited to 40 people and this sells out quickly.

My 14th Annual Bday Horror Movie Marathon Watch Party

My 14th annual bday horror movie marathon watch party is set to take place in October and for the first time ever I’m taking the event mainstream by opening it up to the broader community of horror movie lovers beyond my usual (already considerable) network of friends. The situation is that my bday falls right around Halloween and so every year to celebrate for the last 13 years I've hosted an epic, all-night/weekend horror movie marathon watch party that was historically a single evening, 12-hour affair where we ran thru all if not most of a legacy slasher franchise for the first 8 years (Child’s Play/Chucky 3x, Halloween 2x, Leprechaun 2x, and Friday the 13th/Jason 1x). In order to be completists 5 years ago we started a fresh new tradition-within-the-tradition and expanded the party to 2 nights, with 12 movies and 18 hours of every Friday the 13th/Jason; 8 movies, season 1 and 18 hours of every Child’s Play/Chucky outing; and 13 movies and 20 hours of every Halloween, respectively. And the last 2 years we broke new ground yet again by departing from the single franchise format and mixing it up with different characters and stories tied to certain themes on different days: Slashers Saturday (The Burning, Slumber Party Massacre, Streetwalkin, Chopping Mall, Man’s Best Friend, Serial Mom, My Bloody Valentine 3D and Nurse 3D) + Monsters Sunday (The Maze 3D, Humanoids From the Deep, Parasite 3D, Night of the Demons, Tremors and Jeepers Creepers) in 2024, and Underwater Terror Friday (Creature From the Lagoon 3D, Jaws, Piranha, Piranha 3D, Bait 3D and The Meg 3D) + Found Footage/Screenlife Saturday (Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made, Megan Is Missing, Banshee Chapter, Creep, Ratter, Hell House LLC, Searching and Host) last year. This year we’re continuing to build on that legacy of breaking new ground for no-holds-barred fun by boldly going where no party has gone before — Alien Invasion Friday and Foreign Nightmares Saturday. That’s right. 7 movies and 11.5 hours of terrifyingly memorable and iconic movies depicting alien invasions and infiltrations on Earth spanning *61 years* on Friday, and 10 hours of hard-hitting, provocative and nightmare-inducing foreign movies on Saturday. Join us at my apartment on Friday October 16th from 3 pm to 2:30 am and on Saturday October 17th from 3:30pm to 1:40 am as we usher in this bold new chapter of movie watch partying with: Night 1 - Alien Invasion It Came From Outer Space 3D (1953) Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) The Thing (1982) Predator 3D (1987) Dark Angel/I Come In Peace (1990) Signs (2002) Alien Abduction (2014) Night 2 - Foreign Nightmares The Vanishing (1988) Funny Games (1997) Cure (1997) Triangle (2009) Terrified (2018) Talk To Me (2023) Full bar, delicious food, drinking games, a no-frills home movie theater. If ur into horror movies in spooky season, what’s not to love?!? Over the years I've been doin this I've built up a nice crowd of regulars (20+ people). That said, this marks the first time I’m opening it up to the general public so as I’m taking a chance here I’m gonna insist on meeting anyone interested before giving out my location. This way I can root out the serial killers, etc. Simply RSVP and I’ll reach out to schedule a meetup at a public location (let’s say a bar?). As this takes place in an NYC apartment, space is limited so this will be strictly first come, first served up to about 10 people. Please keep ur RSVP updated so people on the waitlist can join. Everyone interested should bring $15 for food + drinks, as I provide plenty of both, including pizza and appetizers plus a full bar. Please note that although the party is very long (21.5 hours spread out across two nights), with people coming and going as they please, there will be times where it’ll be standing room so I can’t guarantee everyone a seat at all hours (mine is not a huge apartment). I have no idea what kind of response to expect here but if I get flooded with interest I’ll try my best to organize a group outing that way everyone gets to know each other in one shot.
