You’re invited to step into a world of eerie elegance, where every guest becomes part of an interactive, Halloween-inspired roleplay adventure. Prepare to be enchanted by a four-course high tea served in a beautifully historic venue, as you and your fellow guests take part in an unforgettable evening filled with spooky intrigue, secrets, and alliances.
The Story:
The Grand Sorceress Brimrose Primstone has summoned witches, vampires, monsters, and spirits for an elegant yet treacherous tea party to solidify a long-standing peace.
But peace comes at a cost.
As the bewitching hour approaches, it’s clear that not all who gather at this table have the same intentions. Old rivalries simmer beneath the surface, alliances are fragile, and betrayal is always just a heartbeat away.
Will you keep the peace, or will you stir the cauldron?
Choose Your Faction: Witch, Vampire, Spirit, or Monster!
When you purchase your ticket, you’ll choose which supernatural faction to join. Each faction is led by a professional actor who will guide you through the evening’s drama:
~ Monsters – Directed by Yapper Pawdrick, the vain werewolf entrepreneur.
~ Vampires – Led by the charming vampire family patriarch, Babesiosis Sanguis.
~ Witches – Under the command of Brimrose Primstone, a haughty and powerful sorceress.
~ Spirits – Guided by Bog, the silent and silly bedsheet ghost.
The Experience:
~ Receive Your Character Dossier: Every attendee will receive a unique 'Character Dossier' via email before the event, introducing you to your character's personality, background, acting rules, and how you perceive the other factions. Every character is gender-neutral, so you can fully immerse yourself in your chosen role.
~ Pick Your Level of Interaction:
> Main Character – Dive into the heart of the drama! Receive task cards that guide you through the evening’s secrets, alliances, and conflicts.
> Observer – Prefer a more relaxed role? You’ll still receive a detailed character dossier, but without task cards.
