Who Is Playing the WET Deck on Halloween

The hosts promise hundreds of guests dressed to kill and a few surprises waiting in the shadows, and the party is set up for an evening that runs well past midnight on Hollywood Boulevard.

Four DJs share the night: Skemaddox, Hamooudie, Betso and PWNY, each playing open format. Maestro Dobel Tequila and Stranahan's American Single Malt Whiskey are the official liquor sponsors and are stocking the rooftop bars, with product showcases and drink specials built around their spirits.

A specialty ice drink luge pours the night's spirits.

What to Wear to Hollywood Horror Story

Costumes are not required, though the hosts strongly encourage them. The invitation asks for your most hauntingly elegant attire. A costume contest anchors the evening, and the winner takes a $250 prize along with a bottle and a table.

A photo booth lets guests capture their costumes before the night gets late.
