There’s no party like a Los Angeles house party—and Amber Rose’s Halloween-themed birthday on October 19th proved just that. Set on a sprawling estate transformed into an immersive haunted wonderland, some of the city’s best set designers—known for their work with artists like SZA and Kanye West—came together to create a terrifyingly realistic haunted house experience. Partygoers wandered through a fog-drenched forest, a bloody carnival, a human butcher shop, and a dimly lit speakeasy presented by Don Londres.

The rest of the event was just as entrancing, with carnival attractions, a karaoke room hosted by Roccstar Wireless, and two stages for live DJ sets. A food village featured local favorites like Burger 3000, Acai Por Favor, and Bangin’ Buns—a Nashville hot chicken joint you may have seen on social media, quickly rising from its days as a parking lot pop-up to one of LA’s must-try spots.

Attendees included hip-hop legends Chris Brown, Too Short, and Jason Derulo, along with top internet personalities Josh Richards, Jaden Hossler, Alabama Barker, and more. Branden King emceed the night, while Amber herself dazzled in a dramatic Bride of Frankenstein costume.
