We here at Peripheral decided we could all use a drink. There’s an uncontrolled trash fire sweeping across America, so now’s a good time to duck into a dank bar and hide out.
This week we chat about the the darkest, creepiest, most haunted bars we could find. These stories will contain bludgeonings, stabbings, bodies buried under floorboards, torture and suicides. Don’t worry though. Even with all those horrors, these bars are still safer than what’s going on outside right now.
Join us! Let’s get sauced and scared together.
