All Ages Welcome!

Borden Building at Fred Fletcher Park, 820 Clay St, Raleigh, NC 27605

October 12th from 6-10 PM

Schedule

Join us for a chilling night of spooky, video game fun at the glowing, ghastly, green Borden Building! Everyone is welcome—no matter your age or skill level. Game guides will help you get started, and “Mario” and “Luigi” are on hand if you need a boost. Just be kind to our controllers, and beware of the realistic zombie scares!

FREEPLAY ALL NIGHT:

Step into the fright with The House of the Dead 3 and Spookware set up for freeplay all night long! Test your aim with our light guns against hordes of the undead, or dive into Spookware’s eerie Halloween-inspired minigames. Think you’ve got the skills to survive? Come prove it… if you dare!

AMONG US AT 7:30

Prepare for thrills and chills with Among Us at 7:30 PM—like you’ve never played before! Picture this: a quiet dark room, a circle of players, and only candlelight illuminating the frightened faces of your friends. All you need is your phone! Every participant earns an exclusive spooky sticker, and if we fill the lobby with 12 players, we’ll do a giveaway for a cute Among Us plushie. Bring a friend and claim your spot… if you dare! First come, first serve!”

TYPING OF THE DEAD HIGH SCORE CHALLENGE, PRIZES AT 9

Type or die! This is your once-a-year chance to flex your typing skills on a satisfying mechanical keyboard and fend off zombies while enjoying the iconic voice lines from Typing of the Dead. If you can type emails, you can survive! Like a real arcade, each attempt costs, but you pay what you think it’s worth with 10% going to charity. You’ll have until 9 PM to compete for the highest score, with spooky prizes for the top 3 players. Don’t miss out on this limited-time challenge!

THIS EVENT IS POWERED BY TIPS!

Tips are the only way this event is funded. 10% goes to charity at the end of the month and the rest helps support us and create bigger, better, spookier events! We value creating accessible third spaces, so feel free to come out regardless of your ability to tip.
