Hellfire is a fetish/bdsm club. People go there, wear fetish gear- latex, leather, pvc, corsets- whatever. Fetish gear is no big deal these days- watch Rage or a music show, and most of the bands will be wearing something black and shiny
wearing black at the club- if people have no fetish gear- is mandatory. You wouldn’t want to stick out like a sore thumb there. and given that it’s a fetish scene, it creates a particular environment.It’s a community club- for people involved in the fetish/bdsm scene. It used to be a club for general members of society to just come and stare at people, but now it’s more of a community thing- for people who are interested in, or involved in, the fetish scene- not just for people who want to gawk at anything different. New people need to enter there with a bit of humility- and respect others who might be different than yourself
I love it- i’ve been hanging out in the fetish scene for about 5 years- yay! It’s all good, old-fashioned fun
