Enter if you dare: Halloween-themed Black Lagoon Pop-up bar coming to Charlotte

The spine-tingling pop-up will take over Backstage Lounge from Wednesday, Oct. 2 to Saturday, Nov. 2.

A fake skeleton decoration pops out from behind a dark bar at the Black Lagoon Halloween-themed pop-up bar. In the background, neon green, purple, and orange lights add to the scary vibes.

We’d die to go to this Halloween-themed pop-up bar of our nightmares.

Muah-haha. A spirited, Halloween-themed pop-up bar is coming to Charlotte, turning Backstage Lounge at SouthBound into an eerie haunt for all who dare from Friday, Oct. 11 to Sunday, Nov. 3.

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. This is Charlotte’s second year hosting the Black Lagoon.

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.

A couple of the creepy cocktails at the touring, Halloween-themed pop-up.

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.

  • Nosferatu’s Rise | Coconut Washed Lot 40 rye whiskey, Lustau Amontillado Sherry, cinnamon, Bitter Queens Caribbean Bitters + saline
  • Hex Appeal | Fords Gin, honeydew cordial, Lustau Dry Vermouth, lemon juice, seltzer + Absinthe
  • Blood Lust (non-alcoholic) | Giffard Sirop, miso falernum, Rooibos Tea, lemon juice + ginger beer
