“It was epic at previous shows at Garage and Elite's Bar in East Legon and those who attended the event can attest to the beautiful crafts on display. The crowd was thrilled, they had mad fun because Dark Suburb always brings something unusual on stage,” he said.

Mr Limann also revealed the themed decor inspired by The Originals TV series will be a Vampire-inspired costumes and makeup, interactive games and challenges and spine-tingling surprises.

“We’re excited to partner with Dark Suburb to bring this unforgettable Halloween experience to Accra. I can assure patrons that they will be served better because the show will be the official opening of Black Suburb’s Christmas show.

“If patrons had a good time at previous editions, then they should gear up for loads of fun at the upcoming event,” he said.

The Halloween show was started by Dark Suburb in 2021 to mark its customised version of Halloween celebrated around the world on October 31.

Dark Suburb is an alternative rock band that has adopted and refined a culture of masquerades in the continent as their image. Thus giving new impetus to a costume art form that is prevalent in many African societies.

The band wears skeleton masks to highlight the point of our shared humanity and to remind the world that we are one people regardless of sex, race or social status.

While their costume has been a major attraction for their band, the group has equally earned a good following with songs such as Ego Be, Kelewele, I Wish, I Dey Feel You Die, Shelter, Get Out and Don’t Hurt Me.
