Chicago Goth DJ Legend Scary Lady Sarah will join the Exposition this April for the Goblin King’s Masquerade Ball (Saturday, April 13th, 2024).

Scary Lady Sarah passionately enjoys & promotes good, new, dark alternative music. Since 1988 she has been a nightclub DJ, also booking bands and producing club events. Her main event is NOCTURNA, an 18+ dark alternative dance night held once every 6 – 8 weeks in Chicago at the venerated establishment Metro, and is the longest running goth event in North America.

Some other club events/parties which SLS regularly runs include: SHIMMER, monthly shoegaze/dreampop night; LA PETITE MORT, bi-monthly 21st century goth/postpunk night; BACK TO THE GRAVE, annual all goth/deathrock night; and NOCTRONICA, annual all ebm/industrial night, all held in Chicago.

She has many other guest DJ spots at other clubs & festivals around town and the world, plus, she DJs the coolest alternative weddings. She also plays guitar & sings in the band THE BELLWETHER SYNDICATE (as Sarah Rose Faith.)
