“M O N S T E R :

TRANSFORM YOURSELF FOR THREE HALLOWEEN CELEBRATIONS
ON OCTOBER 27, 28 & 31
New York, NY (September 12, 2023) – The McKittrick Hotel (530 West 27th Street, NYC), home of Sleep No More, announced their highly anticipated annual celebration, Monster: A Halloween Party, taking place throughout the legendary hotel on Friday 10/27, Saturday 10/28, and Halloween night, Tuesday 10/31.
Monster: A Halloween Party invites guests to unleash their inner beast and discover the monster within. Spectacles will unfold as they explore a forbidden dreamscape filled with monsters, myths, and live acts ranging from intimate to epic in scale.
Partygoers can celebrate, dance, and drink throughout the night as they immerse themselves deep within The McKittrick Hotel, where the true monster is revealed. Guests are encouraged to dress as their inner monster or in all black. Inspiration is provided on the hotel’s website.
Produced by Emursive, the party was conceptualized and directed by Conor Doyle and Oliver Sayer, founders of immersive creation studio, One Hundred, and dance artist and choreographer, Marla Phelan, the Associate Choreographer/Director to Fiddler on the Roof’s Broadway touring company.
All three creatives trace their roots back to performing in Sleep No More and other Punchdrunk works. They have shaped many of The McKittrick’s parties and special events, including the hotel’s A Midsommar Night’s Dream and New Year’s Eve soirées.
Previous McKittrick Halloween themes include The Lost Garden (2022), The Witches’ Ball (2021), Hitchcock Halloween (2019), Inferno (2014-15, 2017-18), Supercinema: Movie Monsters (2016), The Curse of the Mummy (2013), Carnival des Corbeaux (2012), The Darkest Shadow, Night of the Apparitions, The Last Rendez-Vous, Aphrodite’s Revenge, and La Danse Macabre (2011).
“The McKittrick Hotel just does Halloween better, year after year.”
– Guest of a Guest
“a dream-like world where no one wanted to go to sleep”
– Vanity Fair
“an intricate maze of multiple floors, each hosting a different experience”
– Whalebone
