The Castle 12_13_25 Hallucination Before Christmas

12/13/2025

We were notified this morning that due to a serious medical emergency, Gene Farris will not be able to make it to HBC, "one of his favorite parties." As a result, we are excited to have his friend - dj and producer Kyle Kinch join our cast of characters in Oogie's Dungeon this evening. Kyle is sure to deliver pure grooves. We all send our best to Gene for a speedy recovery… we will hold it down, and will welcome Gene to return next time!

IS THERE A DRESS CODE?
THERE IS NO DRESS CODE WHAT-SO-EVER & COURTEOUS SECURITY
We like to think that Hallucination Before Christmas is where Halloween and Christmas meet in a head on collision, so dressing crazy, club kid, goth, freaky, fe**sh, and in costume is always encouraged. Come to have a good time, and be yourself or your favorite character.
