For party-goers who love Halloween and start carving pumpkins as early as September, the Do It team has created its ultimate list of Halloween parties not to be missed for anything. Between karaoke, haunted houses, a Carrie-style prom, an infernal nightclub, or the chicest museum in Paris transformed into a temple of horror, fans of adrenaline, costumes, and jump scares will have their fill!
Attend a bloody prom night
Casbah turns Halloween night into an American-style prom! A totally wild party where the 80s high school vibe meets horror. What’s in store? Election of the Prom King and Queen (may the best costume win!), fiery DJ sets, and mysterious cocktails. On the dancefloor, groove to old-school hits that will haunt the crowd all night long (who, who?). Costumes are mandatory! So, recycle those outfits you saved for the Oscars and convert them into horror versions for the occasion. To quench your thirst, a bar supplies strange potions to keep you energized all night. And don’t forget to stop by the photo booth to immortalize this horror prom!
La Casbah, 20 rue de la Forge Royale, Paris 11th. From 11:30 pm to 5:30 am. Entry at €16.59. Online reservations.

Speak with the dead
Get ready for a night of mystery at the Rodin Museum, immersed in the haunted world of The Gates of Hell. Under the impassive gaze of The Thinker, visitors witness the tragic fates and inevitable fall of the damned from The Gate. From Ugolin’s basin devouring his children to the mysterious shadows of the undergrowth, brace yourself for a unique journey into the abyss of the soul. A chilling setup with a dark soundtrack blankets the museum’s spaces, ensuring shivers. The evening will feature a variety of performances: hip-hop dancers embodying the damned from The Gate, and actors transforming into ghosts. Meanwhile, explore the shadowy marble gallery through a film photography workshop and join a writing workshop. After so much excitement, a break at the pop-up bar awaits, plus a photocall for visitors to capture memories of the evening.
Rodin Museum, 77 rue de Varenne, Paris 7th. From 7 pm to 11 pm. Entry at €27. Online reservations.
