Last year, MBOH: The Dream Child descended upon Chicago's ravenous horror community. And let's just say things got interesting. In the months since we last convened to worship the dark lords and celebrate their debaucherous malevolence, our deranged child choked on a candy corn and shuffled off this mortal coil. Thankfully our sweet Satanic underling prefers the world of the deceased, and wants to share what they’ve learned in the various circles of Hell. This year we proudly present perhaps our most wicked and unholy creation, MUSIC BOX OF HORRORS: DEAD AND LOVING IT! Just as its namesake suggests, things will get darker, weirder, nastier, and more horrifying than ever as we mourn the death of our child, while celebrating their otherworldly abilities for mining every possible corner of horror to satiate and shock even the most jaded amongst us.
