Muah-haha. A spirited, Halloween-themed pop-up bar is coming to Nashville, turning Germantown’s Barrel Proof whiskey lounge into an eerie haunt for all who dare from Thursday, Oct. 10 to Thursday, Oct. 31.

Dubbed the Black Lagoon Pop-up, the “creepy as hell” touring bar experience is hitting up 35+ North American cities this fall, turning venues into dark, ghoulish hideaways.

Two Halloween-themed cocktails, both bright red. One is in a skull-shaped glass, garnished with mint and the other is in a gimlet-style cocktail glass garnished with apple slices.

The pop-up features a curated drink menu that pairs with the vibes. We spy a few creepy cocktails that look like they’d slay.

  • Hex Appeal | Fords Gin, honeydew cordial, Lustau Vermut Dry, lemon juice, seltzer, saline, absinthe + chlorophyll/green food dye
  • Blood Lust | Giffard Sirop, miso falernum, Rooibos Tea, lemon juice + ginger beer

We’re keeping an eye on Barrel Proof’s Instagram as the dates creep closer.
