This month we're gonna party like it's 1795

Arkham: Shadows of the Night is upon us once again! The DARK SHADOWS-themed party has become a bit of a tradition in the Brooklyn area, with the first taking place in 2012 between the death of actor Jonathan Frid and the release of the Tim Burton motion picture. That sounds more depressing than it probably was: Kathryn Leigh Scott dropped by the party via Skype to help raise a few literal and metaphorical spirits.

Since then, Arkham: Shadows of the Night has turned into a semi-regular event. It's bounced around from different venues over the years, but will take residence later this month at Bizarre Bushwick, a pub located just nine miles from the studios where DARK SHADOWS was taped.

The party begins at 10 p.m. July 28. Arkham has established an event page for Shadows of the Night at Facebook, which you can find HERE. I live too far from NYC to attend the event, myself, which is a damn shame. I can think of nothing else I'd like to do more than watch DARK SHADOWS, drunk absinthe and listen to the occasional Siouxsie and the Banshees. I'll just have to live vicariously through you nice people.
