Introduction
We all have our Halloween traditions. Costumes and candy, pumpkins and mulled wine, El Dia De Los Muertos or Samhain or All Hallow's Eve. For some it's sex and leather, and for others an excuse to drink - but for me it's trick or treat, and this year I got tricked.
My wife RIN dared me to explore the "haunted" basement of the old Stadium Inn at 340 Cambie Street in Vancouver. In hushed tones she told me of its history, the old dog-fighting ring in the basement, the secret illegal after-hours bar they used to run. The old dumbwaiter, the stacked tables and chairs, broken bottles, and washrooms unused in half a century. 'Course I took it upon myself to prove the rumours of ghosts and monsters wrong. After all, Halloween's just an excuse to take your clothes off... right?

SuicideGirls… became famous for embracing beauty in every shape and form — meaning bodies covered in tattoos, having bright-colored hair, and being outside of traditional beauty norms were celebrated. The name comes from the idea that women who commit “social suicide” by being different come together.
A nation wide art-sleaze phenomenon.
It’s like a punk rock Vogue…with artful nude photos of women.
Fifteen years ago, a small-but-passionate community that celebrated beauty in alternative, pinup-style photography was born. It was called SuicideGirls.
They’re the girls next door - but more colorful and with better record collections.
SuicideGirls respond… in the best way possible.
The meeting place for people interested in alternative lifestyles.
SuicideGirls is as much about community as it is about naked photos of tattooed women.
SuicideGirls is redefining concepts of beauty across the globe.
