Alla Spina's getting spooky for Halloween

POSTED: Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 1:37 PM

There's nothing inherently creepy about Alla Spina on any given night but this evening things are getting a little dark over at 1410 Mt. Vernon Street.

Beverage director Steve Wildy is bringing in a sideshow for all of your fire-breathing and sword-swallowing enjoyment from 9 p.m. until midnight and there will be Italo-horror classics screening all night long from the giallo oeuvre of Dario Argento. Wildy is throwing together a creepy-cool mix of Halloween appropriate classics including 10/31 must-hears from the Misfits, Bauhaus, Daniel Johnston and chills-inducing Goblin.

Head on up to Alla Spina for inky black shots of Ferent Branca, sinister scenes from Suspiria and in keeping with the dark theme of the evening there will be 8 black beers on tap, Elysian Dark o' the Moon Pumpkin Stout on special for $3.50 and $2 off any porter or stout if you come in costume.

Victory, Donnybrook nitro  $5 / dry irish stout / pa / 3.2%

Yards, Love stout cask  $5.5 / oyster stout / pa / 5.5%

Monchshof, Schwarzbier  $7.5 / black lager / germany / 4.9%green flash/St. Feuillen, Biere de L’Amitie  $7 / black saison / ca / 6%
