The Ridgewood Asylum

You can count on the Deep End to provide dope dance parties year round, especially for Brooklyn and Queens' most inventive queer revelers. But come Halloween season, the club's gallery space is transformed into a twisted mental-health nightmare that is part haunted house and part escape room. Live out your most frightening Cuckoo's Nest fantasies at this immersive descent into terror, set amid the paranormal remains of a psychiatric hospital that was the site of a grisly massacre half a century ago.
