Another year, another Halloween!
For our 2023 Halloween Issue, we at Vertigo wanted to imbue a bit of ghostly imagination in our dear readers lives: from undead zombies to paradoxically gargantuan vernacular to She-Gods, we hope you’ll enjoy the haunting artwork and even more haunting truths tucked in these pages. From our ghoulish souls to yours, happy Halloween! Don’t let the demented teddy bear bite…
Hey Vertigans, thank you guys so much for coming out with us to SF for Fleet Week! This year, all our profits are being donated to charity, Reach out & Read(out of pure generosity ofc ofc). Thanks again for the hard work, and see you all next year >:)
Hey Vertigo! We haven’t made any updates on our website for quite a while, so we wanted to check in on you all and give a bit more information on issues and events to be aware of. Expect to see more frequent posts soon 🙂
First off, Winter Issue has been published (no, this message is not like a month late, why would you even say that)! Although most of you have probably already seen your amazing pieces on our website, make sure to check them out if you haven’t. Simply click the “Hiraeth” tab under our issues and find your name.
Additionally, our “Vertigans’ Alcove” page has recently been updated to have a wide variety of writing and art opportunities for members (all members should have access to the code needed to access the page). If you’re having trouble finding summer programs or awards to apply to, it is a great source to look into!
Lastly, keep a look out for some exciting events Vertigo is providing! You can find our specific schedule on “Vertigans’ Alcove.”
See you next time!
It’s almost insane—we’ve survived a full year in-person. There were a little blips here and there, but we made it! And to celebrate, we’re releasing Vertigo’s yearly flagship issue, the Spring issue, to the wesite.
After our full production cycle and distribution since 2019, you might have seen the print issue floating around. If you didn’t get an opportunity to grab one for yourself, have no fear! Enjoy it right here, at lhsvertigo.com/aliferous!
Lastly, Vertigo would like to thank the class of 2022 for bringing their wonderful spirit to the club. Our 2021-2022 officer team planned our first in-person open mic, grew Vertigo through numerous socials, and expanded our reach to selling handmade cards for Craft Faire. Congratulations 2022 for graduating; you’re going to do great things!
Look out for our summer issue in the coming weeks. We wish you all the best <3

We’re back to our workshops at Peet’s and in-person meetings, but we’ve also strengthened our community more than we ever have in years past. Vertigo is (verti)growing, and now you can see The Results!
So, in another cold winter, we invite you to bask in the warmth of the sun with us. Our writers and artists (and webmaster btw) have worked really hard to bring this to you and we hope you enjoy <3

This Halloween, amidst the early application deadline, we thought… what is the scariest thing on the planet?
We thought of zombies. Ghosts. Haunted houses (hice?). Bloodsucking vampires. However, none of them managed to equal the terror presented by the years of debt brought forward by the United States’s education system.
So with terror and fright, we welcome you to this year’s Halloween issue… Student Loans.
We have no words to describe our excitement…but here are a few.
After multiple workshops, lots of editing, too many Google forms, a discussion about beans, another annual contest, and a deep cut to our budget, it’s finally here! Spring Issue 2021! Access it right here on our website, or if you’re a staff member, be reading to pick up a copy soon!
An unprecedented Winter Issue during an unprecedented year(s) so that we can say unprecedented an unprecedented amount of times is out now! I mean just look at that glowy cover art >.<
We hope you enjoy!
Looks like meetings and workshops on Zoom worked out after all! Our first (pandemic) issue is out! Celebrate non-existent trick-or-treating by enjoying some of our very spooky pieces! Exclamation mark! Another one! Happy Halloween!
