Silver Screen Shadows: A Lovecraftian Horror LARP
About This Event
A rules-light Mythos-style horror larp set at a Hollywood party during the height of the silent movie era. New larpers welcome!
Laureate Pictures welcomes you to a New Year's Eve bash at the swanky Beverly Hills mansion of studio boss Howard D. Reese. 1927 is sure to be a banner year for the studio, and the stars are here to celebrate. And not just the stars. Mr. Reese has invited everyone who works for him, from publicists to costumers to the lowliest extras. (No doubt a gatecrasher or two will slip through, too, but why spoil the mood by getting worked up about that?) So raise a glass of bubbly and toast to the glorious future of the moving pictures!

Silver Screen Shadows is an immersive roleplaying experience. It will be GMed by its designer, Kathleen Fuller.

Bring Your Own Manga Book Club
Bring whatever you've been reading, whether that's manga, light novels, manhwa, and more. We'll talk about what we've been into, swap recommendations, and just hang out. Come as you are :D Meets on the first Sunday of each month. This book club is presented by Chicago Anime Hangouts.
Silent Book Club: Solo RPGs & Choose-Your-Own-Adventure
Grab that solo RPG, journalling game, or Choose Your Own Adventure book you've been meaning to get around to actually playing (or pick up a new one at Goblin Market beforehand!) and meet us at Beermiscuous for a more social solo-gaming experience. We'll also bring a selection of games from our library with us for you to borrow. Like most silent book clubs, there will be time before and after to chat and mingle. Get there at 5:30 to say hi and get yourself a drink, then at 6 we'll have a dedicated hour of silent gaming.
Trans Occultist Meetup
This is a place for trans occultists of all traditions to share experiences and knowledge with one another. Pagans, witches, chaotes, Luciferians, esoteric Christans, Thelemites, African Diaspora practitioners, and everybody else. If you practice magick and consider yourself some sort of non-cisgender, you are welcome. You are also welcome if you are just questioning your gender, and if you are merely magickally curious. Do not worry about not being trans enough or magickal enough. First Thursday of each month, 7pm-10pm
