"The annual tradition returns at King Bee Lounge as the bar transforms into the Black Lagoon through October 31, shrouded in green fog and spiderwebs with a gothic-meets-tropical vibe; the Central East Austin spot’s moody lighting and immersive decor set the stage for standout Halloween cocktails like the Creature’s Curse, an old fashioned twist served in a crystal skull, and the Midnight Forever, a savory vodka sour with black sesame and miso—equal parts haunted grotto and tiki fever dream." - Darcie Duttweiler
