THE APOCALYPSE WILL NOT BE TELEVISED.
This Halloween weekend, The Forge FTV invites you to something more than just a gig. Prepare for a live, interactive, theatrical rock horror story where YOU are caught in the middle. For one night only, we transform The Electric Circus into a battleground for the undead.
Choose your side. Vampires or Zombies? But if you ask us... we'd be more worried about THAT clown.
THE STORY:
Join our heroes, Hunkerdown, as they begin the night as the last survivors of a zombie apocalypse. Their first set is a crushing battle for survival. After a chaotic intermission involving the cursed costume of local legend Bobby Buttons, they return transformed, having found refuge in a bar full of vampires... just as the zombie horde catches up. Will they be turned, or will they rise up as the slayers?
The legend of Bobby Buttons is real. His haunted costume has a new host, and at exactly 11:11 PM, the possession becomes permanent. The only way to break the curse is with a "United Groove." Will the audience solve the riddle in time?
WHAT TO EXPECT:
One Band, Two Monsters: A unique, two-set performance from Hunkerdown, transforming from Zombie Apocalypse survivors into something else entirely.
An Immersive Story: A live, theatrical narrative complete with a hero's journey, a battle for survival, and the terrifying legend of Bobby Buttons unfolding around you.
Costume Competitions: Prizes for the Best Vampire & Best Zombie. Choose your side and commit!
Themed Cocktails: Will you drink the "Vampire's Kiss," the "Zombie Antidote," or the mysterious "Trickster's Treat"?
A Theatrical Climax: Witness the curse of Bobby Buttons come to a head in a final, interactive showdown at exactly 11:11 PM.
The After-Party: Once the curse is broken, we party 'Til Dawn' Tarantino style to a curated playlist of cult classics, announce the costume winners, and maybe even offer a selfie with the captured clown... if you dare.
