Creepin' It Up in the Club

Halloween weekend is full of scary bar and club events.

Oh, the horror! More frights abound in Centerstage's Halloween Guide...
Pumpkin Pickin ~ Scared Sober ~ Frightening Fare ~ Halloween Costumes

Halloween probably brings you back to the nights of your youth when you dressed in ill-fitting costumes and roamed the streets, coming home with teeth-rotting treats. Now that trick-or-treating is no longer an option (no matter how nice your neighbors seem), there's only one way to recapture that giddy feeling: lots and lots of alcohol.

Lucky you, there's a whole weekend of events to provide you with the opportunity to create new Halloween memories. If nothing else, there's the potential for some pretty scary mornings-after. So stop boo-hooing and start boozing at these bar + club fright nights.

To help you navigate the nearly 100 events, we've highlighted our picks (Centerstage says YES!) and the best prizes (Big money, no whammies!).
