Think you've seen it all when it comes to dance clubs? Think again. With five levels set within 35,000 square feet and a capacity of just under 1,500, Purgatory has raised the bar for the Dallas clubbing scene. Ten bars, a separate lounge area for the ladies and 14 plasma screen TVs are spread throughout this cauldron bubbling with nefarious night owls. The bottom level, appropriately tabbed "Hell," sports a dance floor with hard hops and a devilish vibe. Next up is "Purgatory," for all those struggling with their religion. Ascend another level and you've reached a two-tiered empyrean beginning with "Heaven" where the beats and the atmosphere start to become a little more angelic. By the time you reach "Upper Heaven," you should've attained a euphoric state of bliss that only a divine, uh, couple of rum and cokes can provide. If climbing from level to level works up your appetite, grab a bite at "Pandora," an upscale sushi hibachi restaurant.

Not worth your money!
By tetet79 on 03/07/2005
This club is totally overpriced when it comes to its cover charge, and drinks. It's not even an upscale club for them to charge that way. It's really not worth your money.

Ghetto fabulous! It could have been something different, if they had done things right. Dallas is fickle you have to cater to the right people but it turned out ghetto! I would never be cought dead in hell,heaven or purgatory in Dallas anyway! I will be at Medici,sence or candleroom!

BAD
By foxyplano on 02/19/2005
This club was good for the first 2 weeks it was open and then it went down hill just like Blue. The best spots in dallas are Candle Room, Sense, Obar, and Vain Lounge. If you are looking for places to party check out wildondallas.com. DONT GO TO PURGATORY. OVER PRICED, TACKY PEOPLE, GHETTO.. JUST LIKE BLUE.

i live in nyc most of the year but $20 cover for dallas? what caught me first --except for first floor--too bright they need to dim the lights, too many tv's, music just didn't do it for me oh a big one --no re-entry for 21+.got to admit it's pretty--they dumped a hell of alot a money building it
