Queen of the Damned Blood Rave
This one’s for all the folks out there who saw the vampire rave in Blade and were like “God, I wish that were me.” (It’s me. I’m all the folks.) Drenched in sanguinary fun, this TX Emo Club production will feature soundtrack staples from Aughts goth classics – deep cuts and “Dragula” alike – as well as nu-metal, club classics, and so on. Your vinyl vamps for the evening are DJs metalasfuck and Justine. Pro tip: Swan Dive’s featured drinks always please, but remember that the backyard’s connected to Barbarella, where there’s rarely a line for water. Stay safe and hydrated, my little fangsters. – James ScottFri., Oct. 11 -

Bat City Scaregrounds
One part haunted house, one part fun fair, and one part amusement park, Bat City Scaregrounds covers every inch of its 15-acre domain with shrieks, squeals, and a rockin’ good time. New to the twisted map are retro trash punk shriek-o-rama Slaughter Mall, while the history of horror within Ancient Evil returns to ravage your brain before the vampires of the epic Castle Orlok take your blood and your breath away. Your heart won’t even slow down with the music and sideshow-style performers on the center stage. – Richard WhittakerSept. 28-Nov. 214101 South Turnersville Rd., Buda -

Bunnicula
Wait, you might say. Bunny business? During Halloween? Isn’t that more of an Easter-type deal? Not so with the titular hare in this classic children’s chapter book turned theatrical tale, taking to the ATX stage under the direction of Deanna Belardinelli. James and Deborah Howe’s story about a curious cat, bumbling dog, and a suspicious bunny found in a movie theatre remains a great introduction to horror for kiddos. They’ll delight in solving the “mystery” of just who is exsanguinating all the carrots and cackle at Bunnicula’s many antics. Look: Either you come see this, or be subjected to another screening of Hotel Transylvania 3 – the weakest of the franchise. Make the right choice: See Bunnicula. – James ScottThrough Oct. 27 -

House of Torment Haunted House
The big bone daddy of Austin haunted houses has sat on its throne of skulls and scares for 23 glorious Samhains. This year, it’s throwing open the gates to three attractions around the cursed town of Blackthorne: Beware the insectoid invaders of the Arrival before coming face-to-snarling-face with the Frail One, the keeper of a mysterious and malice-filled chest at the heart of the Abandoned. For retro chills, Torment ’99 brings back both your VHS faves and the black-and-white classic monsters for double the old-school scares. If that sounds a little too much for your nerves or the kids under your watchful eye, then come by 11am-2pm on Sunday, Oct. 27 for the lights-on Trick or Treat tour, complete with candy stations and monsters that only want to make you happy. – Richard WhittakerSept. 13-Nov. 9 -
