Los Angeles, California – Hot off the heels of the infamous Golden Girls Gone Wild extravaganza last month that drew rave media reviews, the World of Wonder gallery in Hollywood now presents ‘HOLLYWEEN: Hollywood Vs. Halloween’, a deliciously morbid and tongue-in-cheek art show curated by ‘Mean Girls’, ‘Bully’ and ‘Party Monster’s’ very own Daniel Franzese. The event will take place October 12, 2007 from 8pm until midnight, the bewitching hour. Festivities will kick off with a cocktail party hosted by Daniel, and will feature Tokio Bar’s DJ Sklyer and his notorious Hollywood v. Halloween mashups, as well as Hollywood musical indie staples, fre.ne.tik.

Invited guests include art scene and celebrity luminaries.

The legendary location of the opening will accentuate the colorful nature of the event. The World of Wonder gallery is owned by Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey, producers of ‘Party Monster’, ‘The Eyes of Tammy Faye’ and ‘Inside Deep Throat’, in addition to the VH1 television series ‘Perez Sez’, and Oxygen’s ‘Tori and Dean: Inn Love’. The production duo took ownership of what was once a converted porn shop on Hollywood Blvd. and turned it into the now-popular art gallery. The locale hosts monthly art exhibits that capture the zeitgeist of contemporary Hollywood and steal visitor’s imaginations on a nightly basis.
