HALLOWEEN SPECIAL OPEN MIC + COSTUME CONTEST
#BUSBOYSANDGHOULS #MONSTERVERSES #SPIRITSANDSTORIES
Join us for this Halloween special open mic, where we encourage poems that speak to or of the supernatural, spirits, ghosts & ghouls, monsters, witchery, and all things weird and freaky! Don't have any poems? Then share your favorite ghost stories, or bring some O.P.P. (other people's poetry/prose)
In addition to this fantastic night, filled with a specialized halloween menu for drinks and eats, we are also having a costume contest, where the best Costumes will have a chance to win Cash Prizes & a Busboys and Poets Gift Card for dinner for 2!
