It’s officially the season of Hallows’ Eve, and while the special day itself unfortunately falls on a Monday, there’s no lack of things to do in the days leading up to it – so you can go all out. Relive childhood nightmares, reenact your favourite paranormal investigation shows, or dress in black for a black-out. Either way, it’s a party.
Halloween Events
Indulge in Some Organs
Nothing screams horror quite like an echoing organ score. Get into the mood with the Halloween special by Singapore Symphony Orchestra at the historic (haunted?) Victoria Concert Hall. Featuring Loraine Muthiah working her magic on the keys through pieces by Bach, Vierne, and Mulet, it’s a nice change of pace from the raving parties and bombastic movies.
VCHpresents Organ: Halloween Night runs 29 to 30 Oct 2022, at Victoria Concert Hall, 11 Empress Pl, #01-02, Singapore 179558, p. +65 6602 4200. Tickets are priced at $5, available online.
Join in On Some Paranormal Activities
Whether you get deeply invested in paranormal investigations or just put them on for a laugh, this is your chance to take part in a bone-chilling adventure yourself. Wander through the World War II battlegrounds of Bukit Chandu with Noel Boyd, Founder of Ghost Files Singapore, and have a go at conducting Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) sessions for the complete experience. Creep yourself out and hit your 10k step-count, all in one night!
A Chilly Night in Singapore
Maybe it’s the traumatic history, or maybe just the childhood memories, but nothing hits quite as hard as local scary stories and cryptids. If you’re not terribly fond of sleep, you can live out your childhood nightmares with Singapore’s First Momok Drive Thru, featuring beloved (or hated) local ghosts and monsters. Feel the suspense build as you inch through the path, and get ready to be surrounded by Potianaks, Pocongs, and The Japanese Soldier, all clamoring to get you! …It’s fun.
Singapore`s First Momok Drive Thru runs 27 to 31 Oct 2022, at Golden Mile Tower, 6001 Beach Road Singapore, 199589. Tickets available online at S$45.06 per adult and S$25.17 per child.
Halloween Parties
The Full Halloween Experience
So much to do, so little time… Torn between trying some new Halloween-themes cocktails, festive eats, or going all out in the club? Well, 1-Group’s got everything sorted out for you. Between a squid-ink Witches Hair Pasta (S$23++) from Bee’s Knees, the triple threat of Hades x Poseidon x Zeus Cocktails ($45++ for three) at Zorba The Greek Taverna, and the “BEAUTIFUL CREATURES” parties at Yin Bar and Yang Club, you’re spoiled for choice.
