Prepare to get spooked at the Boozery: A haunted house pop-up taking over Craftsman for two weeks this October.

Starting on October 17, the East Cesar Chavez neighborhood bar will transform their space into a Halloween-themed fright fest. The pop-up will feature a haunted house, a special menu of themed cocktails, and plenty of hair-raising fun.

While making a visit to the bungalow-turned-haunted house, patrons can expect to sip on aptly-named Halloween-themed cocktails like Death on the Beach, Graveyard Smash, Billy Butcherson (for the Hocus Pocus fans out there), The Bride in Room #525 (named after the infamous haunted room at the Driskill Hotel) and Nobody Likes Candy Corn.

The Nobody Likes Candy Corn cocktail, pictured above, is made with El Silencio Mezcal, Espolon Tequila, fresh house-made corn reduction, orange, pineapple, and a dash of cinnamon. The concoction is a blend of fall-worthy ingredients that are sure to get you in the Halloween spirit.

The Boozery is free and open to the public (21+) October 17 through October 31 each night. Drop by, if you dare.
