You have felt the rot inside you. The woods are calling.
Three days. One ritual. No return.

Step Into the Woods… and Into the Ritual.

August 22–24, 2025 • Frohlich Woods Campground, MI

Feast of the Flesh is a 3-day horror-drag ritual featuring over 30 performers, immersive art, night games, fire spectacles, and the grotesquely fabulous Feast of the Flesh Midnight Dinner Show. Camp under the stars with fellow freaks, or stop in for one unforgettable night of blood, beauty, and queer horror history.

Join Us In the Woods

Do you have the nerve to survive the weekend that launched a cult following?

Back by disturbingly high demand, Feast of the Flesh returns for 48 hours of immersive queer horror, drag-fueled terror, and backwoods debauchery like no other.

This is not a spectator event. It’s a fully participatory descent into madness. Whether you come solo or with a team, you’re signing up for a weekend of chaos where the monsters don’t just perform—they come for you.

Your tent won’t save you. Sleep is optional. Sanity is negotiable.
