One of the best things about October (besides the beer) is getting your scare on. There is really nothing like having something go boo! at you to get your heart racing. It’s invigorating… almost like a workout! And boy do the kids over at Ugly Rhino have a workout for you. They are setting up a new spooky unique haunted house at the Brooklyn Lyceum filled with tragedy and terror called Warehouse of Horrors: Gowanus ’73. The back story behind the haunted house goes like this…
it’s 1970s Brooklyn (most likely super sketchy night time 1970s Brooklyn)….
After a string of mysterious and grotesque murders at an underground rave party, a complex web of mafia relations, crooked cops, and dangerous drug dealers is revealed.
The show uses non-traditional storytelling of “social atmosphere” to engage the audience in a very unique way. This means the audience gets to encounters characters and hear each of their stories. Plus, to help everyone feel social the audience will be armed with cocktails, which come free with the purchase of tickets (21+ of course).
This sounds all spooky and fantastic!
UglyRhino’s Warehouse of Horrors: Gowanus ‘73 will run October 11-November at The Brooklyn Lyceum (227 4th Avenue at Union Street, Brooklyn), Wednesday through Saturday at 8pm. Tickets ($20) are available at the door, 30 minutes prior to the show. All ticket purchases will include 3 free curated cocktails.

If, like us, you weren’t one of the lucky few who got tickets to see Louis C.K. perform three intimate, last-minute sets at The Bell House Monday night, you can relive the glory through a review by Gothamist’s Ben Yakas.
The Bell House teased a “big announcement” over the weekend via their Twitter account, then dropped the bomb at 9:01am on Monday morning:

It seems burlesque, dance, theatre, music, and opera are all rolled into one right here in Gowanus in a piece called Judge Me Paris. The show is actually an except from the Greek mythological story called Judgement of Paris, which goes through the events before Trojan War all the way to the founding of Rome. The story itself is epic, but the presentation by Company XIV makes this piece even more epic. Check out Company XIV promo real and you will know what we mean:
Wasn’t that crazy awesome!
This is just a video promo…image what it’s like in real life!
The show begins tonight and runs through May 27th over at 303 Bond Street just off Union.
