Showings

The Oviatt Penthouse Sun, Oct 20, 2024

Description

The 5:15 and 7:30 PM sessions are sold out. Tickets at the door are $60 for all. Cash only. A schedule has been posted to our website as well as other important information about the event!

We’re having a vintage Halloween experience at The Oviatt Penthouse in collaboration with Olive & Grand and Paper Moon Vintage!

Nicole Marsak’s vintage 1920s and 30s Halloween Costume (and accessories) Collection will be on display along with spooky entertainment, music, cocktails and refreshments.

You will come away with some fascinating history about the building and its builder James Oviatt, some fantastic photo opportunities in the beautiful Art Deco penthouse and other vintage style “treats.” Spirits will run “high” at our no-host cocktail bar!

We are pleased to welcome the magic of the Cosmic Romantics to our stage!

More details will be announced soon! There will be three timed entries in the late afternoon, early evening since the maximum capacity is fairly small.

Come in costume! Prizes awarded at each session for Best Handmade Costume and Best True Vintage Costume.

Spooky Oviatt Stories:

The Oviatt Building is a spooktacular venue of spine-tingling stories. Oviatt historian Marc Chevalier will relate tales of unexplained circumstances on the Hallowe’en Revelry Main Stage at specific times during each session.

Séance with the Cosmic Romantics:

The Cosmic Romantics perform world class magic with the flair of an old vaudevillian duo. They are regulars at the Magic Castle in Hollywood and recently fooled their childhood heroes on the CW's Penn & Teller: Fool Us.

The Cosmic Romantics perform their Séance Show regularly at upscale hotels and venues around Los Angeles. Elizabeth and Eric lead a dramatic (but lighthearted) 30 minute séance to contact a haunting spirit. The performance includes their powerful "second sight" mentalism routine as well as a Victorian-era style "Spirit Cabinet," with plenty of comedic moments mixed in with shocking magic along the way.

Closeup Magic:

The Cosmic Romantics will dazzle you with closeup magic in various areas around the Penthouse.

Vintage Wheel of Fate Game:

Step right up and play a game that involves ingenuity, speed, skill and plain old fashioned fate. This is a game to be played in two teams of one, two or three people.

Scavenger Hunt:

Seek clues in the Oviatt Penthouse to fill your scavenger hunt card. Then enter it in a drawing to win a fabulous prize before the clock strikes…  (time to be announced).
