Brooklyn’s Halloween nightlife: Everything you need to know
Long after the Halloween parades have ended and the little ones have been tucked in, stomachs full of sweets, the real debauchery begins.
Between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. is said to be the peak time for supernatural activity — an idea that stems from the fact that the Catholic Church historically didn’t hold prayers or services during that time. Merriam-Webster, on the other hand, says the witching hour begins at midnight.
Regardless, the best time to celebrate the holiday is during the night, when bars, clubs and parties are in full swing. The Brooklyn Eagle selected some of Brooklyn’s top nightlife events for the weekend preceding Oct. 31, plus Halloween itself — which is on a Thursday this year.
