MR FOGG’S: Jack the Ripper at Mr Fogg’s
Harping back to the times of London’s first and most infamous serial killer, this Halloween will see Mr Fogg’s Victorian home become the harrowing site of one of Jack The Ripper’s terrifying tours.

From Thursday 31st October to Sunday 3rd November guests to Mr Fogg’s, temporarily not so humble abode, will be witness to a weekend full of immersive theatre and spine chilling skits and sketches. From abandoned and severed limbs discovered in trunks, to overly inquisitive surgeons at the bar and impoverished vagabonds skirting around the entrance, Phileas Fogg will indeed have his work cut out for him (literally) on this eerie adventure.

The weekend’s events will then culminate in a seated, theatrical spectacle on the Sunday evening, when 80 of Phileas’s nearest and dearest will be invited to watch the mystery of The Ripper unfold and Fogg himself will head up a Mayfair man hunt, in an attempt to apprehend Jack on his last jaunt, and save Bruton Lane from further fear of the night.

With groundbreaking discoveries and plot thickening theatrics it comes as no surprise that these terrifying tales will then of course also be reported directly from Mr Fogg’s by their daily, hand delivered paper, ‘The London News’.

The dress code naturally will be Victorian, and in this case best to stick to it as you wouldn’t want to stick out from the crowed and attract any unwanted attention…

BUNGA BUNGA:La Notte dei Morti (The Night of the Dead)
Keen never to miss out on any type of celebration, this year, Uncle Berlusconi, (despite the fact that traditionally Italians do not celebrate Halloween) will be throwing a Feast of The Dead in the lead up to the Italian take on The Day of The Dead – “Tutti I Morti”.

On arrival guests can expect to be seated and spooked by a team of menacing and masked maître d’s, and then once the feast is over, forget Karaoke, the real contest will be the Halloween-a-oke competition to be hosted by Bunga Bunga’s resident DJ John ‘dragoween’ Sizzle.

Dress code will be Zombies, Ghouls and Ghosts – Donatella Versace Style – so the tighter, brighter and more tanned, the better. There will then also be a special Notte dei Morti dress up box for all performers.

For those that need a spot of Dutch courage…or just courage, there will also be a selection of poison filled pumpkins, and an extra big and bubbling one that will be reserved as a prize for the most screechy singer.

Last but not least, those who don’t scare so easily, and make it till midnight, will fall witness to an ‘All I Want for… Halloween, Mariah goes scar..ier show.

So, for an eerie Italian spin on the hallowed holiday, head to Bunga Bunga – when in Rome eh!

BARTS: “The Devil Hosts An Intimate Soirée at Barts’ Annual Yelloween Party!”
Be you devil, demon, ghost or ghoul, all are welcomed down to sip on Uncle Barts’ favorite poison – champagne – for the Annual Yelloween Party at Barts this year. Taking place on Thursday 31st October, in association with Veuve Clicquot.

“It is better to be on the right hand side of the Devil than in his path”. Uncle Barts will put this to the test as the evening will play host to amazing live entertainment with an electric violin battle throughout the night between Beelzebub and Uncle Barts ‘for a bottle of gold against his soul’ – as depicted in the infamous Charles Daniel Band song ‘The Devil Went To Georgia’. Forced to take sides guests will both sip, sing and step along to the terrifying tryst, for bottles of the finest liquid gold Veuve…

Fancy dress will be as essential as a crucifix in an exorcism, but if you arrive lacking, fear not, crowned with Devil horns or fastened with a Veuve soirée mask will be your decision – who’s side are you on? Aunty Barts will also be hosting a face painting corner that will be taking all and any request.

So between the cheering and the cheersing – who will win? Who the devil knows eh…
