Mad Scientist Bar for Halloween
Celebrations Expert
Add a little something extra to your Halloween party this year by setting up the bar as a mad scientist's lab.
Shots (the kind you drink!) in tubes, brain food (you can really eat) and creepy concoctions in colanders are all fun and innovative ways to give your bar that spooky lab look for less.
Remember to include dry ice if you can! It's a great way to add the eerie touch we're so used to seeing in mad scientist horror movies!
Take a look at my Mad Scientist Bar come to life. I showed off the tips found here over at BetterTV and had such a great time!
Freeze faux body parts (like the brain seen here) and plastic tubing in blocks of ice to pour drinks through to give them a real chill!This is easily achieved using a mold you can find in your baking or crafting supply store.
Skip the boring shot glass and serve your guests their concoctions in plastic needles or thin tube beakers!
Replace standard garnishes with gross-out alternatives (ie onion eyeballs and finger sticks). Check out our list of Halloween cocktails for some fun recipes.
You can serve the usual cocktails, but we recommend giving your cocktails a Halloween twist. Two of our favorite signature drinks to try? The Alien Secretion and Bloody Mary
.
Remove the labels from your bottles and replace with fun potion names.
Here's a close up on one of the jars I used in my bar design. The label is so easy to make and really helps add a fun flair to your Mad Scientist Bar.
