Spooky themed party?!
The pub in which I work is very haunted, with weird goings on all the time.
Someone suggested to me about having a "Spook Night".
Does anyone have any suggestions to make it a good night?
Obviously we're on a budget, but we are willing to spend about ￡300 max to get the punters in, and getting them to return in the future!
I know it's not halloween, but we thought it might be a good idea.
Any suggestions welcome.

you could make up a flyer about the special night - have it say something like "Come help in our pub's exorcism" or something like that- write a little bit about the regular haunting's going on there. tell about specials and what will be going on that night.
you can give away free drink coupons to anyone showing up in a costume, maybe special prize for best costume (free 1/4 barrel party to be used at a later date maybe?)
have waitstaff all dress up as ghost hunters or just wear a regular costume (something scary!)
have some special snacks like- lady fingers, bat wings (chicken wings), fried brains (fried cauliflower)- stuff like that.
have a build your own Bloody Mary bar, or have Bloody Mary's on special
have a scary movie going on the TVs
start making a list on one of the walls about spooky events that have happened or happened that day, time/date/who witnessed the event- people like to look at that kind of stuff!
maybe hire a tarot card reader or palm reader to give fortunes to your customers!
You can make any room look eery with tons of fake spider webbing and spiders.
You need to create a special spook drink for the night.

it′s all in the lighting... low lights or candle light.. a mist or fog coming from behind the bar area...
a special drink only on spooky night and it should be a 2x1 deal..
something like this on a corner or stage

have a drawing or contest for the best spooky story on that night...
make the decor kinda like goth style...
