Two ravers allegedly took the glow-in-the-dark tour straight to the hospital after attending a late-night warehouse party in Brooklyn last month. The event, called Return to the Bubble Kingdom, was supposed to run from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., and featured a glowing pool that left the vision of two young women permanently impaired. 

Rocio Marie Cabrera and Sarah Deodath, both 19 and from the Bronx, have sued the party promoters (Unicorn Meat NYC) and the warehouse owners, alleging that they poured toxic chemicals into the pool to change its color. This resulted in  both women suffering "permanent reduction of visibility in both eyes." With the lawsuit, Cabrera and Deodath are hoping to recoup the $90 they spent on tickets for the party, and then some.

They won't be returning to the Bubble Kingdom anytime soon.
