On Friday the 13th, Los Angeles‘ creatures of the night descended on the Avalon Theater in Hollywood for “Fred and Jason’s Halloweenie.” Benefiting the local non-profit Project Angel Angel Food, the theme of this year’s party-with-a-purpose was “Rock Star,” summoning the spirits of such queer musical icons as Madonna, Elton John, David Bowie, and more.
For those who missed out on this night of naughtiness, we’ve snatched some of our favorite costumes of the evening. Happy hauntings, homos!
