9 Very Spooky Halloween Drinks.

Dr. Wetbrain, snickering, walked into the dining room where Harold was sitting.

“So, I see you have your Halloween costume on.” Wetbrain jokingly said for Harold looks like he always does.

“So, I see you have yours on also!” Harold replied with a grin.

“Let’s get the party started with some spooky Halloween drinks. So, this year do you want to be the werewolf or vampire?” The doctor asked.

This year if you want to be a vampire for Halloween and want human blood in your cocktail. May I mention that drinking human blood can make you sick by inviting viruses into your body such as Hepatitis and HIV.

Pig’s Blood on the other hand would work out as a much safer cocktail ingredient even for vampires.

Bloody Mary

Since the 1970’s young teenage girls would challenge the ‘Bloody Mary Game’ by going into a washroom with a lit candle. Then look into a mirror and say Bloody Mary 3 times. Eventually drops of blood would appear in the mirror on the first 2 sessions. On the third Bloody Mary incantation a ghostly apparition will appear.

One of the theories of who this ghastly apparition is a Hungarian Countess named Elizabeth Bathory “Queen of Blood”. In the early 1600s she was convicted of murdering 650 young girls so she can bathe in their blood. A type of skin treatment at the time.
