Who wants to chill with Krampus and St Nick? 🎅🏼😈

Next Saturday is our first annual Krampus walk!!

We are super excited to share Krampusnacht with all you spooky folks! 💀

If you’d like to join in the walk, meet up time is at 6pm at Pershing Park (in front of the statue). Kick off time is 6.30pm. We will then walk to Lolobee’s Lounge where we will commence with enjoying killer tunes by DJ RaycerX and goth photos with Santa, and warm drinks by our host! But be careful!!! Our resident Krampus will be lurking about! 👹

We very much look forward to seeing all of you!

Hey darklings!

If you've attended one of our goth nights, you might have seen Harlan, an integral part of our CRYPT Crew, running around and making sure everything runs smoothly. Harlan is in need of some major, urgent dental work that his insurance barely covers.

If you've got a spare few bucks floating around in your chain wallets, consider donating to Harlan's gofundme. Every bit helps! Fangs in advance!

💀READ ON FOR AN UPDATE ABOUT KRAMPUSNACHT💀

Hello, Darklings!

Some of you may know that our home location, the Historic Masonic Temple, is undergoing some restoration work this winter (as is common in buildings over a century old). With this comes the possibility of stretches of time without heat, or without working restrooms. With this uncertainty in mind, we have decided to make a couple changes regarding our upcoming Krampusnacht event.

1. CRYPT: Krampusnacht | Goth Night will now be taking place on DECEMBER 7TH instead of December 14th.
2. Our Krampusnacht event is being moved from the HMT to Lolobee’s Lounge, and as such, it will be a more pared down, "intimate" setting. Expect DJs, goth photos with Santa, and hanging out with friends, but no vendors or clothing swap.
3. As this is now being held in a business, rather than an event venue, we will not be charging admission. We will still have opportunities for you to support your local goth scene--either at our merch table, or via donation. We also ask that you please support and thank our hosts by getting a warm bevvy.
4. The First Annual Krampus Walk will now begin at Pershing Park (meet up at 6, start walking at 6:30), going down the Midland St district and ending at Lolobee's Lounge, where we'll party until 11pm.

We thank you for your patience and cooperation! This is going to be a fun event, and we can't think of a better way to kick off the holidays than with all of you!
