Blackbeard Endeavors, 11 Aleppo St #7, Providence, RI (2026)

10/11/2026

Two performers. Open flame. One hell of a stage.

Mae and Sally Sapphire turned the Big Top into firelight at Blackbeard’s Freak Show Festival.

This is what happens when performance stops feeling like something you watch and starts feeling like something happening all around you.

We’re carrying that same energy into Halloween.

DAY 10: SAM 🎃

Every respectable carnival has standards. Then there’s Sam, with a PBR, a cigarette, and b**r cans in her hair.

Today, she’s upgraded to rollers. We’re all very proud.

Meet Sam, a clown of the lowest order and highest commitment. An honorary seasonal member of our campground family, a familiar face at our events, and my fellow murderous clown when it’s time to create something dreadful in front of the camera. Creative accomplices courting bad taste.

What I love about working with Sam is her enthusiasm for the grotesque. I can bring her one of my darkest, most disgusting photo ideas, and she’s ready to help make it happen. There’s a wonderful kinship in finding someone who shares your delight in making horror art that leaves people wondering what the hell they just looked at.

Sam, you’re a gloriously questionable addition to this beautifully abnormal family. I’m grateful for your imagination, your willingness to get weird with me, and every nightmare we’ve yet to photograph.

Keep the rollers in. We’ve got more terrible art to make.

31 DAYS. 31 PORTRAITS. ONE BEAUTIFULLY ABNORMAL FAMILY.

Every October, I bring nightmares to life through my lens. This year, I’m showing you the people behind the madness.

Blackbeard’s 31 Days of Halloween is a daily horror portrait series featuring the crew, artists, and community members who make Blackbeard Endeavors and the Freak Show possible. Beneath the blood, makeup, and masks are the people who help build a home for the beautifully abnormal.

This is a celebration of creativity, belonging, and the freedom to be yourself. A chance to meet our family and discover that there might be a place in it for you.

And it all leads to Blackbeard’s Halloween Party on Saturday, October 31, at The Met in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Follow along each day, then come celebrate with us.

DJ Siren is taking control of the dance floor at Blackbeard’s Halloween Party.

Follow the Siren to The Met.

There is something moving in the dark.

A sound. A pulse. A call that gets louder as Halloween approaches.

DJ Siren is joining Blackbeard’s Halloween Party, taking her place behind the decks and calling every creature in the room to the dance floor.

Once she starts, resistance is probably a waste of energy.

Come dressed as a monster, a menace, a vision, or yourself. Just be prepared to move.

- Costume contest with a $250 cash grand prize

At Blackbeard’s Freak Show Festival, swallowing the sword apparently wasn’t enough.

So Jelly Boy the Clown lit the damn thing on fire.

This is the kind of spectacle we build. Dangerous. Absurd. Impossible to look away from.

If you missed the festival, consider this your warning.

Blackbeard’s Halloween Party is next.

DAY 9: NATE 🎃

One of the joys of throwing these gatherings is seeing a familiar face in the crowd. Occasionally, that familiar face turns up in drag and hosts your burlesque show.

Meet Nate, a fellow seasonal camper at Vermont Freedom Campground who has attended nearly every event I’ve put on there. Fun, curious, and always a joy to have around, he’s become a welcome part of our wonderfully strange neighborhood.

And yes, he once stepped into his drag persona to host our burlesque show. Camping comes with some excellent extracurricular activities around here.

This community is made up of the people who build the stage, the people who take it, and the people who keep coming back to share in the experience. I’m grateful Nate is part of that story.

Nate, thank you for showing up, joining the fun, and lending us a little of your own theatrical spirit. I’m glad to have you in this year’s portraits, and I’d love to see you become an even bigger part of what we’re building.

Well, now you’ve seen the invitation. Imagine the guest list.

Step out of the ordinary and into Blackbeard’s Halloween Party, where the beautifully abnormal dress for the occasion and Halloween gets the company it deserves.

Come glamorous. Come grotesque. Come as the creature you’ve been saving for a night like this.

Reverend Dan & The Dirty Catechism bring the live music. DJ Siren calls you to the dance floor. And your costume could send you home with $250 cash.

October 31. The Met. Pawtucket.

The party ends at midnight. Give yourself a story worth telling afterward.

Get your tickets. Come find your people.

Reverend Dan & The Dirty Catechism are joining Blackbeard’s Halloween Party.

The congregation is getting dirty.

Every proper freak show needs a house band.

If you have joined us beneath the Freak Show tent before, you already know the Reverend and his unruly congregation. If this is your first service, prepare yourself accordingly.

They are loud. They are strange. They are dressed for the occasion. Most importantly, they know exactly how to summon the freaks.

DAY 8: JON 🎃

There’s something special about watching someone find their place in this strange little world, then roll up their sleeves and help build it.

Meet Jon, who has been part of our vendor community. This year, he stepped further behind the curtain, spending a couple of days helping set up the festival, lending a hand throughout it, and helping take it all down afterward.

That work means a lot to me. Before the spectacle begins and after the last goodbyes, there are people giving their time and energy to make this whole thing possible. This year, Jon chose to be one of them.

He’s also embracing a more authentic version of himself, something at the very heart of why we do this. Seeing him make room for that in his own life while helping us build a place where others can do the same is genuinely meaningful.

Jon, thank you for showing up, pitching in, and believing in where we’re going. I’m grateful you’re helping shape what comes next.
