THIS WEEKEND: The Frankenstand at Pehrspace & Dark Delicacies Poe Celebration

I've been dying to check out the Frankenstand (above photo from their MySpace), a horror-themed vegan hot dog cart, ever since they found and commented on this very blog. And now it looks like tonight is my big chance: They'll be serving up the Wolf, the Witch, the Franken and the Cannibal at Pehrspace in Echo Park for the Hella Hipster Hoedown. It's $5 to get in to the Hoedown, but my guess is that the Frankenstand will be set up in the parking lot. Pehrspace is at 325 Glendale Blvd.; festivities start around 8:30 PM.

Then, on Sunday at 2 PM, the Poe madness continues with a special event at Dark Delicacies in Burbank. From the website:
Book launch party commenorating the 200th Anniversary of Edgar Allan Poe. Join illustrator Gris Grimly signing Edgar Allan Poe's Tales of Death and Dementia. Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab will be premiering four new oils based on "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether", "The Oblong Box" and "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar", with a special Poe oil available with purchase of book, oil and a shirt or print. Original artwork from the book will be on display and for sale. Gris will also have limited editions posters and t-shirts.
Dark Delicacies is at 4213 Burbank Blvd.
