The leak, reported about 12:45 a.m. Sunday, caused a complete evacuation of the hotel at 9300 W. Bryn Mawr Avenue. The hotel was hosting the Midwest FurFest convention.

Mixing bleach and ammonia water produces NO2Cl (nitrosyl chloride), not chlorine per se. Still very nasty stuff.

And that behavior is perfectly normal for adults, too? Apparently.
Adults have been having costume parties for centuries.
