With cobwebs, pumpkins, skeletons, and grim reapers adorning some of our favorite establishments, it’s not hard to notice that it’s finally Halloween season once again. After such a long time, gone are the days where we would celebrate the holiday by ourselves at home with the only semblance of social interaction being a horror-themed Netflix watch party with friends — it’s time to actually party.
Here are our picks for the best Halloween parties coming this weekend. Get into the festivities and celebrate the holiday in a manner that hasn’t been done in over two years. Honestly, horror movies will always be there, so stop digging through your bowl of chocolates, get off your couch, and put on your favorite costume (whether that be your favorite character from Stranger Things or even your bias from your beloved K-pop group), and show off and have fun in this celebration of life and death.
The Haunting of Run Rabbit Run
Who said hauntings only happened at Hill House and Bly Manor? Experience your own ghastly torment straight out of Netflix and come over to Run Rabbit Run on October 29 at 4991 P. Guanzon St Brgy. Poblacion at their iconic red door that you can’t miss. Fend off any evil spirits and apparitions with their delicious cocktails and beats from their guests DJ Mike Tan and DJ Angel Villaronte.
