With an air of the macabre and the stench of rotting death saturating the night, men and women both don their scariest, sexiest, or often stupidest costumes as the booze flow in full force, sweets are gobbled down without regret, and everyone is bound to get down. Halloween is without a doubt our favorite holiday, and you’re in luck because we are willing to dig through the rubbish house parties and lame sausage fest venues to find the real gems around town.

Honorable Mention – Art of Bleeding and Friends
While not quite a party as much as it is a sideshow attraction, The Art of Bleeding will once again transform the Steve Allen Theater (located 4773 Hollywood Blvd) parking lot into a ghoulish carnival of entertaining catastrophes featuring a SPECTACULARLY REAL MULTI-VEHICLE CAR-CRASH TABLEAU. Against a smoldering backdrop of twisted cars, you’ll have the opportunity to hear TRUE STORIES OF MEDICAL HORRORS and ACCIDENTS from a rotating lineup of storytellers. Providing dubious educational counterbalance to these tales of trauma will be THE ART OF BLEEDING‘s “Magic Ambulance Theater,” a tragically misguided children’s show featuring gore-drenched actors, pedantic Safety Ape, bickering robot, and an ample array of attendant nurses in less-than-ample wardrobe.
Expect other hairpin twists, turns, and terrifying surprises including additional comic ambulance horrors from The Art of Bleeding, surprise guests, and a frighteningly live sound-performance installation by BOUNCEHAUSEN sonically recreating the moment of impact in an auto crash, stretched into a luxurious 2 hours of molecularly exploding steel and glass. Also, FEMALE BLOOD WRESTLING! FEMALE BLOOD WRESTLING! Enjoy sexy-gory one-night-only addition to our bill as burlesque beauties step into the ring Sunday 10/30. Halloween costumes encouraged!! Doctors, nurses, and accident victims particularly welcome. Prizes for outstanding efforts related to our theme. Shows run 8 to 10 PM.
