Where the Avalon mainstreams and the Asylum plays to darker fantasy, the Reverence is expected to impress the dedicated Halloween'er.
For two years now the Halloween night at the Reverence has marked season well and is fast becoming a corner stone of the local Goth scene calender.
The interior design is traditional Goth fantasy. Complete with columns, sconces, and an elegant crystal chandelier - it strives for a strong theme of setting. With purple lighting and faux stained-glass windows to allow it's crowd to indulge their most luxuriant fantasy.
The gallery above the main area, with its stained glass windows, wrought iron balcony and long dark curtain velvet drapes, is a favorite area of the Goth elite - where it is very much the place to see...and be seen!
Upon entering the club party goers are given a wristband by the festive and Gothically attired staff...dressed in suitable silk top hats, capes and crisp white shirts for the tall gents; fishnets, top hats and tail-jackets for the ladies...they punch a simple hole in the entry ticket to show qualification for several free drinks at the bar and wish the arrivals a good evening.
Once inside it's clear that the first of the evenings eye-catching cast of dark themed cabaret and Neo-Burlesque acts are already circulating the crowds and warming-up the audience.
