Los Angeles Curated October 2024

PAID SUBSCRIBER PERK: In L.A., Halloween isn’t just an October thing

Dear subscribers & friends,

Welcome to the October issue of Los Angeles Curated! I love October because it means Halloween, my favorite holiday. 

If you love all things strange and unusual, like I do, you don’t have to wait for Halloween in Los Angeles to dress up in costume or experience horror-themed events. You can do spooky things all year. From horror-themed speakeasies to true crime tours, you have a lot of options. 

This month's events list is jam-packed with Halloween-themed events for October and beyond. I recommend a quick skim of the 30+ events and bookmarking this issue to read over the month.

Category: Just weird and delightful

• The Museum of Jurassic Technology is a favorite weird little museum in Los Angeles. It defies explanation. It is open on weekends all year round. If you become a member, there are after hours events just for you.

Category: Horror & True Crime

• Endless Night brings you a series of vampire and witch events throughout the year, including the annual Vampire Ball in February. There is a strict vampire dress code.  

• The couple behind Escotouric offers a lineup of true crime tours several times monthly.

The rest of this list is a paid subscriber perk. Free subscribers can unlock one paid issue as a gift from me. Becoming a paid subscriber funds Ugly Beautiful City to support small businesses worldwide.
