Not just a party

A night built to erase the line between wonder and wicked.

What began in 2018 as a traditional Halloween party for a small, invitation-only circle has become a fully immersive annual experience. Each year opens a door to a different time, place, and unsettling story.

Guests do more than dress for the evening. They become characters in it. Original costumes, elaborate environments, themed games, karaoke, and a signature cocktail turn one night into a legend that grows with every telling.

The ultimate costume award

The Legendary Skelly

A genuine, solid-gold, anatomically correct haunted artifact from H. P. Lovecraft's personal collection. Allegedly.

What is The Skelly?
Legend claims witches forged it in the 1700s, trapping the souls of its victims forever. Each year, it chooses the evening's best costume and adds another name to its base.
Does the winner keep it?
Absolutely not. Its influence is far too dangerous. Winners receive a smaller, safer replica created in the style of that year's theme.
How does it choose?
No tally is taken and no mortal rule governs its judgment. The Skelly chooses in its own inscrutable fashion, and when its favor settles upon someone, no one dares question why.

✢ Competition is fierce. The Skelly is not merciful.
