Halloween Parties for Adults: Texas Style

You say you need a drink on Halloween Eve?

The Dallas-Fort Worth area has a listing of Halloween parties held at popular nightclubs. Adults have a chance to join in the fun by wearing ghoulish costumes and getting wicked until the late hours of the night. In Dallas, Trees and Buddha 9 will hold parties from 8 pm until 2 am. For those who would like to party in Fort Worth, Scat Jazz Lounge will cater to your Halloween Eve dancing. Additionally, what better place to find free live music events than in Halloween theme parks themselves? Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, for instance, holds its yearly Howl-o-Ween top 10 countdown at the Fright Fest’s Majestic Theatre. They perform songs by Aerosmith, KISS, Kelly Clarkson, and other popular and classic rock bands. If street dancing is your thing, you can join Mr. Six Spectacular Street Party, where a mix of favorite Halloween party music will rock the night.

But it doesn’t have to be costume parties and late night drinking. You can get a whole lot of Halloween ideas by checking out Halloween Events 2009.
