The Halogen Company announces YULE

December 6th, 8pm to Midnight at 2234 Temple St, Los Angeles CA

The Halogen Company, is proud to invite the Los Angeles immersive theater community to a celebration! The company that brought you One Exit, the sold out summer immersive experience, is holding a winter extravaganza, YULE, at 2234 Temple St, Los Angeles, CA.

Be transported to a winter forest, filled with mischief and surprises. Help us exalt our fellow immersive companies as we shed light on everyone’s accomplishments from this past year. Dance the year away in our Huntsmen’s Forest. Winter creatures will entertain you as you enjoy holiday punch and tasty treats. Tread carefully, the Wild Hunt is known to crash the party.

Featuring performances from Koryn Ann Wicks and Demi Jolato, tarot readings from Keight Lane, caricature portraits with Stephanie Delazeri, holiday DJ Olivia Paulson, and a VIP immersive performance by James Cowan.

In our Nice Room, find your renewal and create something for others. Bringing you inner peace, this room is dedicated to bringing cheer to those less fortunate. Craft a card or special note for a child in need while playing in our snow-covered wonderland.

The Naughty Lounge is not for everyone. Those unfortunate enough to purchase this ticket will get to meet the Demon of Yule himself. This immersive experience will leave you feeling all kinds of wrong.

YULE is a festive affair. We encourage our patrons to dress up in their finest woodland garb! This party is wheelchair accessible. Yule will run 8pm-12am on December 6th.

Delusion: The Blue Blade, Alt Delete is an amazing interactive play with some incredible moments that will stick with me.

I’ve always been a fan of Delusion, but honestly I was a bit apprehensive about attending a show that was so short. I wasn’t sure if it was really worth the journey and the cost.

It is.

It’s an incredible performance with a small cast in a unique location, The Dragon & Meeple pub. It continues the same story so if you attended Blue Blade you will be familiar with the story and Evelyn Lowell, however if you didn’t you will still enjoy it. They are only open for a few more weekends, so I highly recommend getting your tickets soon so you don’t miss this unique experience. You can also hang out after and enjoy board games, dinner and drinks.

HALLOWEEN – NYC Halloween Parade – NY

NYC HALLOWEEN PARADE

We didn’t have much time to spend at the parade, but we stopped by in between going to Bane Haunted House & seeing Then She Fell on Halloween night. I recommend spending the entire evening and arriving early so you can get close to the parade route and see everything. Even though we were only there for a short while, it was an incredible experience.
