Dinner and a Scary Movie.

Meza in Soho, London are putting on (or have put on) a nice little string of events at their elegant little restaurant.
In the run up to Halloween, they have been offering dinner and a horror film to anyone that is interested.

Although a few of the showing have been and gone, there’s still time (maybe) to catch Scary Movie tomorrow (26th), and attend a Rocky Horror special on Halloween itself.

The Package consists of the following:
A classic, terrifying movie; a warming Pimm’s Winter drink: and a delicious selection of bowls including shoestring fries, mini hamburgers , salt pepper squid and butternut squash risotto.
And all for just £15 per person, which ain’t bad at all!

There’s also a showing of the Ring with nibbles on the 3rd of November. A nice pick-me-up to help you get over the depression when Halloween is over for another year.

My habits over the Halloween period have changed over the years. When I was very young, I attended house parties.
As I matured, I was deemed safe to walk the streets and ‘trick or treat’ with older kids. Soon I could trick or treat without older kids, and before I knew it, I was out on Halloween, drinking alcohol and going on ‘haunted pub’ crawls.
Each activity was fun in its own special way.

However, now that I am older and have family commitments, things have changed.
My idea of a good night on Halloween is now a night in with a bunch of good scary movies, some Halloween food and some Halloween drinks. And of course good company. All in my uber-halloween-a-fied house.

Obviously, the success of such a night depends on a few things. The quality of Halloween food; the imagination with the Halloween themed drinks; the decor and effort taken to make the surroundings suitably spooky; and of course a good selection of horror movies, because on all-Hallowes-eve, there is no time to waste on rubbish.

I highly recommend doing your research on the run up to the big day, and a great place to start looking is Love Horror. They write impartial reviews, so give accurate opinions. I highly recommend them.
