About the event
Queer Night: MONSTER SMASH
A monstrous night of queer delight
One last chance to let your monsters out to play 👻
Halloween season may be coming to an end, but the creatures of the night aren’t ready to crawl back into their coffins. MONSTER SMASH is your post-Halloween playground—where queer cuties meet creepy-crawlies, cryptid crushes, and campy creatures of every kind.
Bring your ghoulish giggles, spooky sparks, and revel in a night where the monsters are the main characters. Whether you come fanged, furred, feathered, or just fabulously freaky, this is your night to howl, haunt, and hunt.
🧟 Monster Smash-up – Dress as your favorite creature, cobble together a creepy costume, or just channel your inner monster (no enforced dress code).
🕸️ Creepy-Cute Vibes – A night of eerie ambiance, cobwebbed corners, and a soundtrack with just the right mix of spooky and silly.
🧵 Fuzzy Fiend Friendships – Build a monstrous side kick to bring along for your tricks and treats at our craft corner.
🎃 Ghoul Gang Goals – Mingle with cryptid cuties and connect over the things that go bump in the night.
Get your fangs out and claws polished because MONSTER SMASH is your chance to keep the magic (and mischief) of Halloween alive just a little longer.
Queer Night is a play party centering 2SLGBTQ+ community members of all genders, bodies, and expressions. Whether you’re cruising cuties, curious to explore, or just want a cozy, consent-forward space to vibe and play, you’re warmly welcomed here.
Please note, our entry door will be locked after 11 PM for the safety of our members and staff. And yes, you do have to go home at 1AM.
At Probe, inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. We welcome all individuals of all sexual orientations, genders, and identities. Our aim is to create an environment where everyone feels respected, valued, and free to express themselves authentically. Our venue is wheelchair accessible, with an elevator available. Our goal is to provide an accessible, inclusive space. If you have any questions or have specific accommodation requests, please reach out to us.
A membership is required to attend our play parties. If you haven't secured your membership yet, be sure to do so before the event! You can sign up for your membership on our site here or can be purchased at the door.
New Members Policy: If you are a new member attending your first play party at Probe, you must arrive within the first two hours of the event. This helps us provide the right orientation and support for newcomers.
Tickets are available on a sliding scale to promote inclusivity and accessibility. We offer limited “supported” and “sustain” tickets at a lower price for community members who might otherwise be unable to attend. Please choose the ticket price that makes this event accessible to you. If you’d like to support event accessibility, consider purchasing a “generous” or “benevolent” ticket, which helps subsidize lower-price options. All ticket types provide the same access to the event.
A variety of snacks and non-alcoholic drinks will be available all night to keep you refreshed and energized. Please note that bringing alcohol is not allowed.
Our dedicated Dungeon Monitors (DMs) will be present throughout the venue, attentively supervising the play areas and offering assistance to ensure everyone's safety.
