A Horror-Themed Speed Dating Mixer
Presented by Haunted Calgary
Hosted at The Potion Room
Find your coven. Find your cryptmate. Find your person.
Tired of swiping through a bunch of boring people who think spooky season ends in October? Craving a first date that that gives you shivers in all the right ways?
Love at First Fright is a horror-themed speed dating mixer where costumes are encouraged, small talk is buried, and connection comes first.
• You’ll rotate through short, round-robin conversations
• Each table includes curated prompts to skip awkward small talk
• The format is structured, fun, and low-pressure
• After the rounds, stay for open mingling with people you clicked with
Come as you are…
or as a vampire, final girl, cryptid, demon, witch, or something deeply unsettling.
Costumes break the ice, spark conversation, and make this night unforgettable.
Our community is wonderfully diverse and everyone is always welcome.
However, to help guests find the best possible matches, this event is intentionally targeted.
