In honor of Phillyist's favorite holiday, we're delving into the darker side of Philadelphia's nightlife to spotlight Scaryoke at Ulana's (2nd and Bainbridge Streets). Part of "Despondent Heaven" (a weekly Goth-night featuring gothic, metal, industrial, punk, and new wave music party), Scaryoke is just what you'd imagine it is: Goth Karaoke (We guess not everyone likes to sing Petula Clark's greatest hits when crooning for strangers). Phillyist has heard good things about Scaryoke - and the second we manage to stay up late enough to attend (Despondent Heaven starts at 9PM, but Scaryoke doesn't get started 'till midnight) we're all about it. And we're pretty sure could be considered Goth, if you performed it right. Despondent Heaven is $3, and you must be 21 or older to get in.

Starting this friday, it's Arts and Culture Week in Center City Philadelphia. This means 1/2 price tickets to a variety of Center City venues from the 21st through the 30th. If you've been looking to check out some of our Philly's swankier cultural offerings, now's the time.

This week, we're highlighting an activity beyond our city borders. But as it's (a) easily accessible by PATCO and (b) for a good cause, we'll brook no complaints.
