The Blood-Red Rose is a goth club located in downtown Fort Lauderdale, Florida.<br/><br/>The club is popular and has bouncers for the line out front for crowd control, not checking ID's.  (Characters on the VIP list can skip the line.)  The bouncers at the club all look like Men In Black: black suits, ties and shoes, white shirts, black sunglasses, and Bluetooth earpieces.<br/><br/>Waitresses and female bartenders of the club wear a uniform consisting of a black tuxedo jacket, white dress shirt, black bow tie, and black tights and pumps.  Many also wear a white lace apron and/or a black g-string or thong over their tights to collect tips.<br/><br/>The club itself has two levels.  The ground floor has a bar which (officially) doesn't serve alcohol and so it technically doesn't need to check ID's.  The ground floor of the club is crowded with dancers, many (most?) of whom seem to be underage, at least for drinking.  There is a bar on one side of the dance floor, and the wall on the opposite side is mirrored.<br/><br/>There are doors in the mirrored wall for restrooms, and some other doors guarded by bouncers.  Occasionally people go in and out of those doors, both staff and customers.  Customers who are curious about that are told (relatively truthfully) that it is a private area reserved for members and their guests.<br/><br/>There is another dance floor on the upper level.  A wide, curving staircase connects the two levels, with a sign saying<br/><div align="center"><strong>YOU MUST BE 21 OR OVER TO BE ON THE SECOND FLOOR</strong></div>at the bottom of the staircase along with a pair of bouncers.  The upper level has a bar which does serve alcohol openly, and the two bouncers at the bottom of the stairway are supposed to check ID's, but they don't seem to bother.<br/><br/>In order to get to the "private lounge" one enters a guarded door in the mirrored back wall and enters a narrow hallway, then goes down to the second door on the right, although the hallway runs all the way to an exit the back of the building.<br/>The lounge looks remarkably ordinary, at least at first, like a bar in an airport or restaurant.  There is a bar on one side of the room, while the other side looks like a glass wall with booths along it, and some tables and chairs on the carpeted floor between.  Only on second glance does one notice the recliners along the other walls -- the sort of reclining chairs that are used for blood donations.  And the glass wall is the reverse side of the one-way mirrored wall so it looks out on the dance floor, and also into the restrooms.  Mr Grey is nothing if not thorough in providing for the tastes of his guests, no matter how "exotic."<br/><br/>There are other rooms along the hallway; a small office up the hallway contains a folding card table, two folding chairs and a swivel chair, and a metal file cabinet.<br/><br/>It is also possible to reach the club by entering through a door that looks like a service entrance in the back of the building; the entrance -- like the two real service entrances -- has a regular lock, a deadbolt, an electronic keypad, and a security camera, and it is the other end of the narrow hallway.  Despite the multiple security systems, it is probably less trouble to enter that way than to squeeze through the press of dancers on the floor.<br/>
