A gunman opened fire early Saturday in a home, killing six partygoers and critically injuring at least one other before committing suicide when confronted by police outdoors.
Five victims' bodies were found in several places in the rented home in the Capitol Hill neighborhood east of downtown, police said. One of three other people taken to a hospital died.
"It's one of the largest crime scenes the city has ever had," said Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske.
Some, if not all of the occupants of the house are said to have been at an electronic dance party earlier that evening. They returned to the home to continue partying after a zombie rave entitled Better Off Undead.
Steve Huff has more details and links to MySpace pages related to some individuals possibly in the house that night. These are allegedly the rave scene names of the victims:

Myspace of Sushi. One of the DJs who died. Read the comments. This is what happens and how people express themselves when youth is snuffed out. So sad.

1. Why am I not surprised? 2. Who doesnt have a MySpace account among the young? 3. What is it with the youth in America today? Young people please explain. Where did this come from? Too many weird movies and too much media and popular culture gone rotten?
