Our next show is on October 30th. Tickets are on sale now.

At this live reading, a group of talented writers will share original scary stories, and you’ll vote for your favorite. The catch? The writers only have 60 minutes to write their stories. In the end, there can only be one winner.

WHERE: Tradesman Bar - 222 Bushwick Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11206

WHEN: October 30th, 2025 - Doors at 8:15 PM / Reading starts at 8:30 PM

DRESS: Costumes are encouraged but not even remotely required — we promise.

Comedian Maggie Olmsted (The New Yorker, NYCF) hosts and produces this annual event showcasing scary stories written by some of the best comedians, journalists, poets, playwrights, and novelists in Brooklyn.
