Every October, the historic streets of St. Augustine, Florida, transform into a playground of eerie delight with The Beetlejuice Pub Crawl. Imagine wandering the brick-lined streets of the nation’s oldest city, but with a twist: your guide is no ordinary host, but the mischievous ‘Ghost with the Most’ himself. This experience is a lively celebration of the cult classic film Beetlejuice, mixing spirited cocktails with playful pranks and an atmosphere brimming with supernatural flair.
St. Augustine’s historic district, known for its centuries-old architecture and ghost stories, provides the perfect backdrop for this uniquely themed evening. The pub crawl visits four handpicked bars, each capturing a slice of Beetlejuice’s quirky and creepy charm. Visitors can expect to sip on four predetermined cocktails specially crafted to evoke the spooky vibe—each mix a blend of flavors as intriguing as the locale itself. This isn’t just about drinks; it’s about stepping into a storyline where laughter, surprises, and a touch of mischief abound.

A shareable bite is included at one stop, ensuring guests keep their energy up while mingling and exploring St. Augustine’s lively nightlife.
While the emphasis is on fun over history, the city’s backdrop cannot be ignored. St. Augustine’s rich tapestry of colonial and paranormal history seeps through the air, providing context to the cobblestoned setting and hints of old legends that add weight to the experience. This combination of theatrical entertainment and local charm makes the Beetlejuice Pub Crawl an event distinct in St. Augustine’s outdoor recreation and nightlife offerings.
