BoneDaddy's Bacchanal

Step into your Villain Era: NYC’s cr33pycvnty cabaret where queer horror meets immersive thrills. This isn’t just a show—it’s an experience.
Donate Here
A chaotic, fever-dream queer horror cabaret inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas. Blending cabaret, political satire, adult clown chaos, and consent-driven interaction, BoneDaddy’s Bacchanal unfolds as a choose-your-own-path experience where agency, desire, and power playfully collide—where leering lust lingers long thereafter.
BoneDaddy’s Bacchanal was far from a typical performance. With eerie yet captivating costumes and a labyrinthine set, the show invited attendees to step into a world of controlled chaos. Guests were handed dice— included with VIP tickets—and encouraged to roll them to unlock secret interactions. Performers wielded flashlights for consent-driven encounters, seamlessly integrating boundary-pushing surprises with deeply immersive storytelling."

“It’s about agency,” Karley tells us. “Horror forces us to confront our fears. Kink lets us play with power. Both are about reclaiming control, and that’s at the core of BoneDaddy.”

BoneDaddy's Bacchanal: Queer Horror, Kink, and Digital Art Collide at Madame X

"By midnight, BoneDaddy’s Bacchanal had cemented itself as one of the summer’s most distinctive one-night-only events. It was proof that nightlife can be more than fleeting spectacle—it can be an arena for cultural commentary, artistic risk, and collective liberation."

Inside BoneDaddy’s Bacchanal: Karley’s Queer Horror Cabaret Embraces Immersive Theater
"Karley’s approach to audience engagement also set the production apart. Recognizing the challenges of interactive theater, they invested heavily in pre-show education. Artist talks, behind-the-scenes teasers, and sneak peeks helped attendees shed their passive “sit-and-watch” mindset, preparing them to embrace their roles as Oogie Boogie—the chaotic force driving the night."
