On November 13th, don your fangs, gather your coven, and enter the historic Hofheimer Building for an immersive night of dark music, dancing, performances, themed drinks, vendors, photo opportunities, and vampiric revelry.  
  
Hosted by After Dark RVA, the Vampire Ball transforms 2nd Floor of the historic Hofheimer Building in Scott’s Addition into a gathering place for vampires, goths, creatures of the night, and anyone drawn to the darker side of Richmond.  
  
Throughout the night, expect live performances by Dollz Entertainment, roaming photographers, vampiric themed drink specials, vendors, and plenty of places to capture your undead transformation. Those wanting to add a little more blood can visit DC Creators Body Art Collective booth for vampiric makeup, including fresh vampire bites, slit throats and other gruesome enhancements.
