Dark
stirrings are afoot in the distant fairytale lands of
South Ken. For beneath the innocent country-house grandeur
of the Gainsborough, a ghoulish secret is about to be
unleashed.
|
|
Buried
in the basement of the white-washed hotel, there sits
a new chamber that some fools call a 'club'. Its walls
are decked with gaudy mirrors and dripping graffiti
by young artists (probably long since tortured to death),
and the booths are padded with slick black leather (to
protect the thrashings of the Dionysian locals, no doubt).
Whilst it's been unofficially drawing in sacrificial
victims for a little while, this ghostly South Ken den
officially opens for fresh blood tonight. The leather-clad
bar is host to a veritable army of spirits (see what
I did there?) and boasts some 2,000 concoctions for
you pleasure, while a line-up of London's favourites
DJs keeps the floor flowing.

|
Just
be careful not to dance yourself into too much
of a frenzy. This is the second venue from Ghost
Inc., and they're out to spread their demonic
invasion throughout the land.
We're doomed. Doomed I tell you. But with martinis
like these the dark side doesn't sound too bad.
