Old Gods of Appalachia presents: Goth Prom
About this episode
The episode explores a Halloween-themed prom event in Asheville, North Carolina, featuring music and storytelling elements from the Old Gods of Appalachia.
There’s a story whispered in these hollers that speaks of the ones who never got their proper prom — how they wait, patient as roots, for the night the veil goes thin enough to try again. This Halloween, that night comes to Asheville, North Carolina. On October 31st, Old Gods of Appalachia drags Eulogy down into the dark for a night unlike any other — fog curling low across the floor, candlelight flickering like it’s afraid of something just outside the door. DJ Poltergeist commands the decks, spinning deep cuts that sound like they were pulled straight up out of the mountain itself. Prom Royalty will be chosen and crowned by the hedge witch and yours truly, in a ceremony older and stranger than any homecoming court you ever knew in high school. Keep your eyes on the crowd... members of the Old Gods of Appalachia cast may creep among the revelers (as schedules permit). Before you leave, the merch table waits, offering the opportunity to carry a little piece of the dark home with you. The doors don’t open until 7pm, and the night doesn’t truly begin until 8, but for those who want to kick things off early, a pre-show meet & greet begins at 5pm. Extend your evening…
