Step Into the Black Lagoon

This October, Night Train transforms into Black Lagoon, an internationally touring Halloween pop-up bar that has taken over some of North America’s most iconic cocktail bars — and now, it’s surfacing in Fort Wayne.

Black Lagoon isn’t your average pumpkin-lit haunted house. It’s a darkly immersive cocktail experience inspired by cult horror, goth culture, and the macabre. Picture a sea witch’s apothecary, glowing potions, creeping fog, and cocktails that look like they were brewed in a haunted lair.

Created by hospitality veterans Erin Hayes and Kelsey Ramage, Black Lagoon is known for transporting guests into a theatrical, otherworldly world — where eerie decor, moody lighting, and creative drinks come together for a night you’ll never forget

Since its debut, Black Lagoon has become one of the world’s most recognizable Halloween cocktail pop-ups, known for merging high-end cocktails with horror-inspired theatrics. With custom decor, eerie lighting, and elaborate set design, every city stop becomes a new take on its haunted underworld

What to Expect at Black Lagoon

  • Immersive Design: Think glowing cauldrons, hanging moss, fog machines, coffins, and tombstones. Every inch of the space becomes a scene straight from your darkest dreams

  • Spooky Seasonal Cocktails: Limited-time creations inspired by classic horror and occult aesthetics.

  • Curated Playlists & Live Events: Goth rock, dark wave, and metal set the tone, plus themed nights and performances like trivia
