It’s that wild time of year again when Manila sheds its 9-to-5 skin and transforms into a city of monsters, mischief, and midnight magic. Costumes, cocktails, chaos—you name it, the metro’s got it. From Poblacion’s gritty streets to BGC’s glittering towers, Halloween 2025 is shaping up to be one for the books.
This year, the city’s nightlife scene is going full throttle with massive productions, themed madness, and the kind of parties that make sleep impossible. Whether you’re craving spine-tingling scares, retro throwbacks, or intergalactic escapades, there’s a haunt waiting just for you.
So gear up, dress to kill, and get ready to dance ‘til the sun rises; or the spirits say stop.
