Join us for the Ravenswood Costume Crawl, an evening of treats, sweets and BOOze!

We’re going to need a bigger boat! Each October, your favorite local haunts are teaming up for an evening of treats, drinks, and Halloween fun. Show up in costume, hang out with friends and neighbors, and enjoy a fantastic selection of local bites and sips as you hop between shops and restaurants along Montrose Ave.

The Ravenswood Costume Crawl is going to do for Montrose Ave what Jaws did for the ocean. It’s a great opportunity to sink your fangs into a variety of scary delicious flavors in one evening–and a fun excuse to support local businesses along Montrose! When else do you get to go to Margie’s dressed as Frankenstein’s monster?

It’s alive, it’s alive! Want to know more about how it works? First, you’ll creep over to our Check-In Location at Teddy’s Ice Cream (2000 W Montrose Ave), where you’ll get your wristband, punch card, swag bag, and map. Then, you’re off to devour treats and check out a spook-tacular tour of local businesses.
