liar's night is back. and it’s halloween week, so dress a little spooky if you want 😈 we're switching up game night. every game on the table will focus on social deduction, deception, bluffing, and reading the room. spend the night trying to catch someone else in a lie, or convincing the group you’re totally innocent (even when you’re definitely not). coming solo? we’ve got you covered. we’ll help match you with a group and walk everyone through the rules so you can jump right in and start playing. whether you’re a master manipulator or a terrible liar, this is a game night where everyone wins.
last call lectures: from bloodsucker to heartthrob: how the vampire got hot
The Scout Waterhouse + Kitchen
1419 N Wells St, Chicago, IL 60610, USA
vampires weren’t always sexy. from ancient blood-drinking monsters and plague-era corpses to dracula, bela lugosi, anne rice, buffy, and twilight, this lecture follows 2,000 years of humanity’s favorite undead menace and asks how a horrifying creature of disease and death somehow became robert pattinson with glowing skin. historian dr. john j murphy leads us through a history of folklore, fear, sex, death, and pop culture, told through the constantly changing monster we call the vampire. here's how the night runs: dr. murphy opens with a 45 minute lecture, followed by 15 minutes of live q&a. then we break into small groups for 45 minutes of guided discussion. stick around after for mingling, this crowd always has more to say.
