Named “the best LGBTQ+ event in London” by the Evening Standard, the infamous drag parody fundraiser Snatched is back for a one-off special this Halloween.
After running for 10 events and raising over £10,000 for their sponsor HIV charity Wandsworth Oasis, Snatched sadly announced it was ending its glorious reign at the Two Brewers last year. But due to popular demand a new and improved version of the drag impersonation extravaganza show is back this Halloween for a one off with four new contestants to battle it out for the £300 grand prize.
This time it’s not just Disney characters been hilariously parodied in a blankety-blank style gameshow, it’s a whole host of Halloween and Horror worthy huns… and it’s gonna be hilarious.
Read on below to find out which chilling characters have been chosen. Early-bird and first release tickets have sold out so book now to avoid disappointment.

👯🏽♀️ Mayumi Fukiko as The Twins (from The Shining)
Give us the pitch!
“Come play with us…” or at least with me, because it seems like Alexa Grady might have lost her sister in the hotel hallway! Mayumi Fukiko is serving half the terror but all the twisted charm as she takes on one of the infamous Grady twins.
She may be flying solo for now, but don’t be fooled—this Twin is more than capable of bringing the horror and the humor all on her own. And if you spot her missing counterpart… well, let’s just say things might get twice as terrifying. For now, Alexa’s going it alone, and she’s here to double down on the eerie elegance and chilling wit that’ll have you seeing double—even if you’re not!
Why did you choose to impersonate this character?
I chose this character because it’s iconic and I love doing iconic shit! We all know and “adore” them but how much do we actually know about them? Now you’ll know their story; maybe even their life after The Shining. Come to the show and find out.
What’s your favourite thing about the event / what are you most looking forward to?
I’ve always loved the community Snatched has created and the shows are always very welcoming and despite it being a competition, stress-free. Everyone’s just having fun. And of course, we all get to help a really important cause. That’s the best part.

🧛♂️ Zoe Promiscuous as Count Von Count
Give us the pitch!
Ah, ah, ah! Get ready for numbers, wit, and a little bit of bite—because Count Von Count is sinking his fangs into this Snatch Game! But he’s not just counting numbers anymore, darling, he’s counting all the reads, the shade, and every wrong answer that’ll leave the other contestants gasping for air.
With that cape swirling and fingers poised to tally up the competition, you can bet Count Von Count is ready to take everyone to school—math class is now in session! Just don’t try and count him out… he’s always one step ahead!
Why did you choose to impersonate this character?
Count Von Count is a really fun character to play with. he’s such a camp character that we all had on our tvs growing up, so it just felt right becoming the count for snatched. i had so much fun creating his costume too, as it’s a big step away from my normal style of drag, so it was fun to have the challenge
What’s your favourite thing about the event / what are you most looking forward to?
My favourite part of the event is the blankety blank section, where everyone gets to give their version of their characters and use all the skills we’ve developed as performers to do so. having freedom to go as wild as you want is the best part

🧟♂️ Oedipussi Rex as The Thing
Give us the pitch!
What’s that creeping in from the corner? Oh, just Oedipussi Rex, transforming Snatch Game into his own personal thing—literally. Shape-shifting, mimicking, and bringing alien realness to the stage, He’s ready to confuse, confound, and conquer this competition.
Nothing’s off-limits for The Thing. He’s got the ability to become anyone, or anything, which means He’s got a hundred different ways to win (or at least look like she’s winning). Is it spooky, shady, or just plain sneaky? One thing’s for sure—there’s no telling what form he’ll take next.
Why did you choose to impersonate this character?
The Thing is one of my favourite Camp horror Classics, and is a character I strongly identify with as it’s a bit chaotic and fond of dramatic reveals. There is also a severe lack of beard representation in Horror films, so it was nice finding a film that meant I didn’t have to shave before winter.
What’s your favourite thing about the event / what are you most looking forward to?
One of my favourite things about the Snatched shows is the Auction- It’s wild watching people donate incredible amounts to charity for actually good items- no bargain bin items from Poundland here! (well, unless you count what’s on stage…)

🐄 Delicious Lee Extra as Killer Laughing Cow
Give us the pitch!
Did you know that ‘to cow’ is to bludgeon, frighten or terrorise?
Life can push you to the edge when there’s a constant expectation to bring a laugh and a joke. How was Laughing Cow supposed to react when she found out that her partner of 10 years, Colin the Caterpillar, had been cheating on her with Aunt Bessie? Apparently Laughing Cow wasn’t mature enough.
But turns out murder is just as much a laughing matter. This is Laughing Cow 2.0: unafraid, unbowed, unleashed. Cow-tow before her! You can still enjoy her creamy, light, snack cheese wedges…but at what cost? Ask Colin. Oops, you can’t, because she had her cake, and ate it too.
Why did you choose to impersonate this character?
As a huge fan of bovine mascots for processed cheese triangles, it was really a no brainer. Lol jk, I am actually over the moo-n to finally bring the Sexy Killer Laughing Cow to life. My favourite thing in life is to be absolutely stupid, and bring people along for the ride, so who better to help me achieve this than a silly little camp cow with an axe to grind with a certain unnamed Marks & Spencer cocoa grub whose name rhymes with Dolin the Baterpillar. Also, side bar, I love the absolute audacity of wearing your own face on your earrings, conceited as hell.
What’s your favourite thing about the event / what are you most looking forward to?
I’m most looking forward to seeing how all the characters interact and, tbh, a huge amount of chaos. Also excited to see what everyone else brings in this cauldron of creativity – all the other characters sound camp as hell. Laughing Cow for Miss Congeniality.
