Hello lovelies,

We're still alive in the dead heat of summer...and our AC is kickin'!

For one thing: did you know Miss Scorpio not only runs an eye-popping secondhand statement wear, designer & vintage boutique year-round, but is currently in midst of a huge festival sale, including her own OOAK handmade and upcycled pieces? A preview on FB marketplace: http://bit.ly/4fxET3G -- DM there or on her fashion Insta to set up a time to drop in: http://www.instagram.com/miss_scorpio_fashion . You can also shop during all parties, or even virtually via DMs -- worldwide shipping available.

On to party mode: we have two fun options for you this month, one created by our naughty sister brand House of Scorpio and requiring their membership, and one co-hosted by us and open to all -- but offering discounts to HoS members. Join the fun with us:

- Tomorrow! Fri 8.8 - Lip Service: monthly pansexual makeout party ($0-25, HoS members only) - kiss your partner, kiss your friends, kiss adventurous strangers of all genders...it's THAT famous makeout party. Fun games at pick-your-own level of physical interaction, from PG to R. Choose your adventure, even if that means just hanging back and enjoying the atmosphere. You'll need an HoS membership, which is instant and starts at $5, and a safety buddy or two to bring with you -- and of course a fabulous outfit.

- Fri 8.22 - Look If You Dare art + burlesque show & Dark DecaDance afterparty ($10-45 show / $0-20 afterparty, open to all / HoS members get discounts) - an extra naughty art & burlesque show leading into our monthly queer-forward goth dance party. We can't say much here, but trust us, it'll be a good one. On its own, each event is $20+, BUT between early bird $5 off DDD discount and $10 off GA or reserved chairs when bundling with DDD, you can enjoy the entire night for half off -- and if you're an HoS member, your discounts go even deeper. Info below; memberships and tickets at http://houseofscorpio.com/membership.html (note that VIP show seats are only available through the other ticket link in the invite, since those seats are assigned).

Cheers,

Gemini & Scorpio,
makers of themed costume events with live entertainment

Bring your luscious lips (yours and your PAL's), and join us for lubricating libations and naughty games with sexy friends and intriguing strangers. Bring toys & games to share (blindfolds? rope? sexy dice?).

Feeling shy or wanting to meet new folks? Come early! Meet our founder, Miss Scorpio. Between 9-10:30pm, Miss S is there to introduce new members to old timers, explain how the whole HoS thing works, and generally make a delightful fuss over your presence.

Think of our makeout parties as R-rated community mixers--a place to get to know your fellow kinksters, introduce a partner to a more playful lifestyle, and maybe even find a future PAL--before attending the more naughty play parties. It's also a way for us to vet you in person for those parties; talk to us at the event.

Dress to be kissed: sexy and fun. Fetish attire, formalwear, lingerie, corsets, tutus and costumes always welcome...and we consider those unisex options (the more colorful and outrageous, the better). No casual or business; door person WILL turn you away -- see Code of Conduct page on our site for more details on the dress code.

*Lip Service happens on the second Friday of every month

**HoS rules: HoS membership, PAL & Dress Code required; no prior approval required; Code of Conduct always applies; no photos except in the designated front area.

COVID safety: HoS requires proof of vaccination on file; masks encouraged; two hospital grade UV air purifiers will cycle the air.

A salacious art gallery and burlesque show...everything you can't see on socials! Do you dare to look?

Then settle in for a tantalizing and revealing performance featuring Peekaboo Pointe, Frankie Eleanor, Veronica Viper, Qualms Galore and Dandy Dillinger. Hosted by the fiery floral duo Lily Lavalocks & Rosie Tulips. All proceeds go to benefit Coney Island USA.

Then stay for...

Dark DecaDance afterparty

DDD is a monthly queer-forward kink-friendly goth dance celebration, inviting all participants to let go, dance and play in our luscious private loft. We embrace all genders and sexualities and levels of darkness. Expect queer dance anthems and classic dark sounds.

On decks: resident DJ Shiver has been bringing the best of darkwave, goth, industrial, and post-punk sounds since 2015. Having spun at Femme Fest LA, Defcon NYC, and co-founding clubs Dolce Vita and Physical Ruins, she continues to blend both beloved classics and the best of new dark music. She also runs Wire Trap music magazine featuring the best new darkwave and post-punk music and events.

Afterparty dress code: goth, fetish, romantic, vampire, dark Lolita, neo-Victorian, steampunk, ninja warrior. Effort required / no casual wear (ie no black t-shirt/jeans/sneakers). If you're coming to both the show and party, please dress up!

*Tables & couches are assigned seating, and have to be reserved through the non-HoS ticket link. Chairs & GA tickets can be reserved through HoS. Chairs are first-come, first-served and are set up based on the number of seats sold. Both chairs & tables are cleared for the afterparty.
