Crypticon, Seattle’s annual weekend celebration of the macabre, is full of creepy delights, but make sure not to miss San Francisco’s queen of frights Peaches Christ in Sinema: A Drag and Burlesque Tribute to Cult Horror Films.

This week, our arts critics have recommended the best events in every genre—from literary talks (including New Yorker staff writer William Finnegan and former Stranger writer Lindy West) to concerts (including the hardcore Rain Fest and a Bob Dylan birthday tribute) to out-of-town Memorial Day weekend festivals (including Sasquatch! and the Hood Canal Shrimpfest). See them all below, and find even more events on our complete Things To Do calendar.
