This year, Seduction will be ON Halloween night, which of course means that we need to go bigger. Bolder. Sexier.
Seattle’s sexiest Halloween party will be invading the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall on October 31, 2026. And remember, Seduction: Wicked Wonderland is a fundraiser for the 2027 Seattle Erotic Art Festival. By attending Seduction, you help make SEAF go!
Volunteer shifts will open soon! If you want to help out and get into Seduction for free, go to SignUp here.

DJs
Adriana A (Bootie Mashup)
As the Queen Mother of international music and nightlife brand Bootie Mashup, Adriana A has made a career out of showcasing “the best mashups in the world ever,” throwing genre-fluid dance parties in San Francisco, LA, NYC, Berlin, Black Rock City (and beyond) since 2003.
By shamelessly combining pop songs both throwback and current, this trans icon has won numerous nightlife awards in California, along with hosting a popular Twitch channel. Adriana’s own mashup productions have gone viral on TikTok, been covered by the artists themselves, and nail that sweet spot of bridging the gap between the mainstream and underground, making everyone feel welcome at the party!
Her most recent mashup work has found her merging diva pop vocals with her love of electronic darksynth and darkwave, perfect for her DJ residencies at Piepshow, Berlin’s monthly queer party at KitKat Club, and Playland, San Francisco’s weekly fetish party, as well as festivals such as Berlin Fetish Week, Burning Man, Wasteland Weekend, and Neotropolis.

Artists
Exhibiting artists will be announced soon!
Silent Cinema
Brodin Petrichor is happy to bring the magic of cinema to Seduction this year with an anthology of the Silent Film Showcases over the past four seasons of the Pan Eros Film Festival. This collection of short films from over a dozen international filmmakers encapsulates the spooky, atmospheric, and unsettling cinematic art of Halloween. Also featured in this are personal projects collaborated by Brodin and their team.
The Iron Maiden returns!
By the incomparable Feral Maz, the Penis Iron Maiden is an interactive piece that combines the horror of medieval torture with the male phallus. Resembling a cross between an armoire and a coffin, the PIM is activated when participants step inside to be gently impaled by hundreds of silicone penises while they gaze at their own dimly lit reflection.
