HALLOWE'EN Things To Do

Valerian's picture

So... exactly what's a Goth to do in BC around Hallowe'en?  Should be the ultimate time of year for us, right?  So what's going on? 

This thread is for posting events that are specifically Hallowe'en related, anywhere in BC.  Could be all-ages or not, doesn't matter - craft fairs, costume parties, theme concerts, spooky film festivals, tours of decorated houses, pumpkin carving contests, night club events, etc.   So if you know of anything, please post it here with all the gorey details!

Does anyone know if anything is going on in the Comox area, or perhaps Nanaimo?  Things seem sooo dead here, and I have no way to get away to Victoria or Vancover, where everything seems to be happening. I dont want to spend Halloween watching Horror movies with my roommate!

Yay!!  A Victoria event, thank you for posting!

i am NOT missing the Trolley tour this year..i meant to go the last two years and i always miss it..plus for things to do..nuthing beats the old-fashioned trip to the pumpkin patch..and personally i think fright nigth is overrated..too many people..and line ups

There won't be any special one-off Sin City late in the month like there was last year, but Sanctuary always goes over the top for Hallowe'en. Aaron and Isaac (Mr. Dark and Pandemonium) spend all year planning ways they can out-do the previous year. Remember the 10' stone gargoyle that exhaled smoke that was over the DJ booth last year? This year Aaron wants to make it breathe fire, and he's just the guy to pull it off, too.

Let's put it another way: last year while Aaron and Isaac were loading up the decorations for Sanctuary the police showed up because the "bodies" they were moving from the garage fooled a neighbour. Could a person ask for higher praise of their Hallowe'en decorations?

Is this going to be on Sunday then?  I thought "something wicked this way comes" was usually on a Saturday but I noticed that Sonar has something different booked that night... or is it going to be somewhere else?
