If you’re on Facebook, chances are you’ve been getting a lot of invitations to Halloween parties thrown by local bars, which is a good thing. But for those of you not on Facebook or those of you who are feeling a bit bombarded by all the options out there, allow me to make this holiday a little easier for you. Below you’ll find a list of as many as parties as I could get information on. I have them organized by day with all the important info such as DJ, cover charge, prizes, and drink specials in there too. This doesn’t mean there aren’t other parties out there, these are just the ones I could find info on. Know of any other cool parties? Let me know in the comment section so I can update this post.

Thursday – October 29

The PigPen – Allentown – The PigPen is getting things started early this year and, as far as I know, are the only people throwing a Halloween costume party this Thursday. A flyer found on Facebook doesn’t give a whole lot of information, but does confirm that they are throwing a costume party hosted by DJ Synystr with a $300 first prize for best costume.

Friday – October 30

40 Below – Bethlehem – High Energy Halloween – 40 Below is keeping it real for those under 21. Friday night’s party is 18 to party, 21 to drink. There’s no cover for anyone over 21+, but if you still aren’t old enough to drink, expect a $10 entrance fee. DJ Cap Cee will be providing beats for the party which features $200 in prizes for the sexiest and scariest costumes.

Starter’s Riverport – Bethlehem – Mischief Night with DJ Girl 6 – Not sure this really counts as a Halloween party as there’s no mention of costumes on the Facebook event page, but I thought it was probably worth mentioning anyway. I don’t know anything about DJ Girl 6 other than what is on Facebook, but according to Starter’s Riverport she is “Las Vegas’ Hottest Video DJ”, which could be cool to check out.

UPDATE – Looper’s – Bethlehem – Apologies to the crew at Looper’s for missing their two night Halloween party this weekend. Friday night at Looper’s you are encouraged to dress up as your favorite musician dead or alive. I’m already envisioning some great costume ideas…Angus Young, Buddy Holly, Freddy Mercury. Come on out and enjoy great themed drinks with discounts for people who show up in costume.

Saturday – October 31

The Firehouse – Bethlehem – A Nightmare on Broadway – For their first Halloween the people at The Firehouse are going big. They’ve brought in Trans/Event and are stepping things up with a party that will include two DJs, gogo dancers, and fire performers. There’s an $8 cover for the Halloween Happy Hour which runs from 7-10PM, and a $5 cover after 10PM. There’s also going to be several giveaways including flat screen TVs, Eagles tickets, and many more.

Starter’s Riverport – Bethlehem – Monster Mash Up 3 – Audio Dynamikz has done Halloween before, they’ve been doing it for 3 years now in fact. This year at Starter’s enjoy audio and visuals provided by DJ Cap Cee and DJ $weetlife, $2.50 Coors Light, and $4 Marani vodka cocktails. They’ll also be giving away $500 in cash prizes for the scariest and sexiest costumes. Make sure you dress up because there’s a $5 cover charge if you aren’t wearing a costume.

UPDATE – Looper’s – Bethlehem – Saturday night’s party at Looper’s is couples themed. Find a partner and go as a team. Could be a musical duo, a famous celebrity couple, or a couple from a TV sitcom…Ross and Rachel anyone?

Roosevelt’s 21st – Bethlehem – Dressed to Kill – It’s also Roosevelt’s first Halloween party this year. Their Halloween party will be hosted by DJ Dangerous Dan and feature any pint for $2 from 9-11, $4 Rhino & vodka’s, and $500 in cash prizes for costumes.

Wow. When you see it all on one page like that it’s a lot to take in. The question is…where will you be celebrating Halloween?? And what’s your costume gonna be? Share in the comment section below.
