Are you looking for a true horror experience to spice up this Halloween? Is regular costume-party, pumpkin-painting, cookie-munching just not your thing? After all, what is Halloween without horrified screaming, bloody murder scenes, adult beverages, and bone-chilling thrills? Well, look no further because the latest pop-up installment at Chicago’s favorite pop-up bar, Replay Lincoln Park, is exactly what you’re looking for.
Located at 2833 N. Sheffield, Replay has announced their latest pop up installment, Slasher Museum. Running now through Sunday, October 31, this Lincoln Park bar has transformed its gaming areas into a manor of the macabre filled with frightening replicas of iconic slashers including Michael Myers, Freddy, and Leatherface.
Here, you can complete in themed weekly trivia, costume contests, along with horror movie-themed arcade and pinball games and more, curated by Pop-Up Productions. This event and all of the games are free, with no reservations, tickets, or tokens required.
During this limited-time pop-up, there will be spine-chilling themed events that include horror film trivia every Thursday night at 7 pm, along with costume contests, DJ sets on Thursday through Saturday and photo opportunities in replicas of various horror film sets. Fear fanatics will also have the opportunity to trick-or-treat themselves to deadly delicious cocktails including The Night He Came Home, Vorhees a Jolly Good Fellow, Leatherface, Hello Sidney, Redrum, It’s Bloody A-gore-able, Trick-or-Treat shots, and much more that are to die for.
“Everyone loves a good horror film, so we thought this would be the perfect Halloween event not to be missed,” said Mark Kwiatkowski, owner of Replay Lincoln Park. “We encourage all who love spook, gore, and more to stop by and get haunted this Halloween season!”
