Nocturna is a long standing  Chicago tradition. It has been going strong for over 20 years. This year their All Hallow's Eve Ball is Saturday October 29 at Bottom Lounge (often their events are at Metro).

Some would call the monthly club night a "goth" event but it is more than a single genre. The music played is not ONLY old goth classics but industrial, EBM, shoegaze and more. The night embrsaces a multitude of genres. DJ Scary Lady Sarah has even played (and I heard this myself), John Hiaitt (...there's a dead girl's body by the railroad tracks...)

I also seem to recall her playing Vampire by Peter Tosh. All kinds are welcome. And even if you are not into dark beautiful music you will still have a blast at the Halloween event.
