2011: Halloween Freak Show

Unleash the freak! In a time when wenches wore corsets, gentlemen wore top hats and mobile phones were steam-powered, the Freak Show was a refined form of entertainment. The theme for the 2011 infamous Halloween party paid homage to the exhibition of human oddities and to steampunk, with the Victorian era Freak Show.

Formerly at Boom Chicago, Amsterdam Spook’s 2011 bash was held this year at the historic Odeon Theater. Guests of the sold-out costume bash were treated to 3 & a half floors of Halloween, and each space had it’s own music style & theme.

With thanks to the artists:
