This year’s DJ is festival favourite Arthur Shillin and the night is hosted by our very own mistress of the night cabaret legend Lady Beau.
The Most Haunted Venue in Brighton
The venue’s cavernous gothic-style interior really sets the scene. This year venue boss Mark Such has his team busy in the basement creating some very unique Halloween décor. The King and Queen is grade II listed and dates from 1779. The building started life as a farmhouse before becoming a pub with major remodelling in the 1930s.
It is noted on the Paranormal Database that the staff are often spooked by windows that seem to open themselves and keep banging even after being secured. Not only that, but voices have also been heard shouting from the empty bar after closing! Mark and his family live on the vast top level of the building. He says that after the first year he came to accept the creaks and bumps in the night and now sleeps soundly!
Hopefully the resident spirits will enjoy the party too, in a venue that acts as the perfect backdrop for performances including pop-up entertainment ALL NIGHT from The Electric Cabaret Company. This really is the best Halloween party in Brighton!
