Four local punk and indie acts share a Halloween bill at Insideout, running from 10 p.m. into the early hours of the 29th. Insideout is a small room, which means the sound hits hard and personal space is a negotiation, so go knowing that and embrace it. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so grab...
The night before Halloween, Triple Moon Bewitched sets up tarot readings inside Painted Lady Bed & Brew as part of the venue's Brews & Boos series, pairing craft beer with something a little harder to explain. Painted Lady is a small, genuinely weird space in the best way, so the atmosphere does a lot of...
Cradle of Filth's Majestic In Death II tour hits the Sunshine Theatre the night before Halloween, which means the crowd showing up for this one will be in full costume and already committed. The Sunshine holds around 800 and has a wide open floor, so you'll want to get there early if you care about...
The 1986 film plays on screen while a live orchestra performs the full score underneath it, Bowie songs and all, on Halloween night at one of the most theatrical rooms in New Mexico. The KiMo's 1927 Pueblo Deco interior is already a lot to take in, and a crowd dressed for Halloween watching David Bowie...
TourABQ's Halloween pedaler crawl puts a pack of costumed riders on a guided multi-stop bar route through the city on the night itself.

The specific cast is still TBD at listing time, so the experience depends on who they book, but the room itself is well-suited to the form: intimate enough that the footwork lands in...
The 1986 Bowie-and-Muppets fantasy film screens at the KiMo with a live orchestra playing the score, which means you hear Trevor Jones and David Bowie's songs the way a theater...
Six local acts, six full-set tributes, one Halloween night: the lineup runs from Neutral Milk Hotel to Kataklysm, which tells you this is less a genre show than a chaos experiment that somehow works every year. Launchpad's long narrow room gets genuinely packed for this one, so arriving early matters more than it usually would....
