This happened such a long time ago and I never made a post about it! Oh my god, this has to be one of my most favorite memories ever.
It had to be about 7 months ago at least. Way back when I was realllly obsessed with supernatural, but starting to loose interest. I really liked this actor, Osric Chau. He's 29 but mostly plays highschoolers. Me and Clara were starting to get into witchy stuff and we did a love spell, she did it on the boy she liked, and I did it on Osric Chau. We were both like, nahh, there is no way this is gonna work.
A week later I'm on facebook and there's a post from Osric Chau's page saying that he's going to this really small show in burbank to support his friend's band, and he would love if more people came. I FREAKED OUT and called clara and I was so happy because never in a million years did I think I was going to meet this guy! I don't my parents and I instantly came down from such a high to a very low low low because they told me they had signed me up to be the photographer at their friend's benefit and I was like NOOOOO I hate taking photos noooooooooo no and I cried and cried and cried until they agreed to let me go to the show as long as I went to the first part of the benefit.
Clara's brother picked me up in this fucking car that only had 2 SEATS so I had to sit on Clara's lap as we were driving like a million miles an hour and I was freaking out and her brother just kept saying "Can you please try to look like 1 person". I really thought I was going to die. But I didn't and we made it to the show!
It was at this suuuuuper weird/cool place. There were chinese lanterns and the inside was kinda like a maze with all of these different aestetics mashed together. It was kinda like spiritual-indie meets scary carnival meets the late 80's. Veerry cool. The opening set was pretty good. We went out to this little garden place that was part of the venue and I saw the guy!! THE guy!! Osric Chau! I was like Oh! MY! GOD! But I didn't approach him then, I waited until it was about to be the next set and he was buying ppl drinks. He offered to buy everyone a cocktail and that's when it became apparent to me that maybe, hey, 15 year olds aren't supposed to be in this establishment because it's 21 and older and it was a total miracle that we were not carded. Like FOR REAL A MIRACLE.
I got a water and introduced myself and it totally was like I had left my body and floated to heaven because I was really, in love with this guy. Really. Like big ol' celebrity crush IN LOVE. And I totally stayed cool and confident when I introduced myself. I'm really proud.
So the band was pretty good. I can't remember what it was called but the main guy was dressed up like a tiger and there was an old hippie woman and they invited their lawyer to play a set and it was just a cool group of people. We went outside to talk to this girl we met who was from sweden but came to LA to act and I started talking to the owner who was wearing this shirt that had the denny's logo but instead of saying denny's it said dahmers' and I was like wooooahhhhh is that for jefffery dahmer and he was like yeah! I directed and started in a movie about him!
We talked about Jefferey Dahmer for like 8 years and he told me that he actually went to the real apartment and but his head up against the door and he could feel things. SO creepy. Then he was telling me about how he used to be a mortician and actually lived above the mourge and oh, just by the way, he has 2 preserved bodies here, would we like to see them.
WELL GUESS WHAT I SAW 2 DEAD BODIES IN ONE NIGHT. The first one, was just like, a skeleton. Very small, no big deal. BUT THE SECOND ONE WAS A VERY VERY WELL PRESERVED DEAD CLOWN WHICH IS ABOUT AT CREEPY AS IT GETS. It was such a weird experience. I felt very cold inside but also very alive. I hope that doesn't sound cheesy when I read it back.
There were also a lot of very creepy very cool things at this place. Like a preserved two headed baby and a haunted painting and a shrine that you could make a wish on with a personal item that would come true. I didn't have a personal item though, so I didn't make a wish :'-( And I was leaving the wise hippie woman was smoking a ciggarette and asked me if she could stroke my hair. It was very nice. Oh, I got a picture with Osric Chau but I looked totally gross in it. I was really glad I got to meet him because after that I got over my celebrity crush. I got over supernatural too, which is REALLy for the best.
That was a very long read but oh my gosh. I am never going to forget the time I snuck into a 21+ venue saw my celebrity crush 2 dead bodies talked about Jeffrey Dhamer and got my hair stroked by a hippie woman. My favorite night.
