About this Event

Below the details for the November 12 event is a bio explaining the group "Ghouls and Girlies." (the event was moved from Oct 8 to Nov 12). We are going to discuss what we know about fashion/makeup and overall image consulting in the courtoom, especially in high profile cases from history, for example, Casey Anthony, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, and Anna Delvey. There is an option to come to the event dressed up as one of the following: 1). What would you wear if you were involved in an important court case? Are you the defendant of a M**der you didn't commit (or you DID commit lol), on the witness stand, in a divorce trial, an attorney, or a family member? 2). Dress as a figure from a famous court case in history. Here are some sources you can review if you would like to prepare for our talk. We can also, overall, mingle more than usual.

(((Here is a bio of who we are: Are you a girlie obsessed with ghosts, aliens, true crime, cryptids, and anything else eerie or spooky? Do you crave new like-minded friends to accompany you in a deep dive into your favorite creepy topics and share the cozy, warm feeling of a terrifying horror film? Our group began in Oct. 2023. We meet every first Thursday of the month from 7-9pm to discuss topics like a true crime podcast or documentary, a trilogy of horror movies, a gothic fiction novel title, personal experiences and beliefs about spirits, historical sightings of Mothman or the Loch Ness Monster, etc. We also organize extra events, like going to the movies, listening to a live lecture expert, or going on haunted tours. [We are LGBTQ-inclusive. We welcome anyone female/femme/trans/non-binary of age 21+. We are disability-inclusive]. Please feel free to ask me, your host Jen, of any questions))).
