Spooky Baby Events’ Slasher Flea Market took over The Hideout at Good Trouble (922 New York St, Redlands) on Friday, September 12, running 6–10 p.m. and leaning hard into a family-friendly horror vibe. The format was simple: a few of horror-centric vendors, a steady stream of attendee energy from the on-site bar, and a crowd that skewed equal parts horror die-hards and curious locals. It felt intentionally DIY; organized enough to move lines, loose enough to keep the subculture pulse beating.

Programming framed the market as more than shopping. The “Labubu” slasher photo op, Spooky Baby’s recurring cute-meets-carnage mascot twist, was the night’s reliable magnet: five bucks for a digital plus a small print, and a queue that never really died down. As evening settled in, the black-light/glow dance turn added motion to the aisles and gave vendors a second wind; the event’s own promo had teased exactly that cadence, and the crowd showed up ready to play along.

The space worked in the market’s favor. The Hideout’s industrial nooks let the team cluster booths without killing flow, keeping noise levels just chaotic enough to feel alive without washing out vendor conversations.

What landed best was the curation. You could bounce from screen-printed slashers and resin curios to occult home décor and small-batch artists who clearly built inventory for this exact crowd. Prices stayed within impulse-buy territory, and the all-ages posture wasn’t just lip service—costumes, kids, and stroller navigation were all visibly accounted for in the layout and programming. That accessibility is a competitive edge for Spooky Baby’s circuit and a brilliant read of Inland Empire taste.

Redlands Slasher Flea Market delivered what it promised: a low-cost, high-character horror marketplace with a couple of easy wins (photo op, glow dance) that kept the energy from going flat. If you want glossy convention polish, this isn’t it. If you want a living, local horror scene with room to breathe and buy weird things, this is the right haunt. Redlands edition included.
