HORRID (Denver's Horror Shop)

Started in a spare bedroom in 2018, HORRID is now a full 'House of Horrors' complex tucked behind the Brutal Poodle bar on a quiet residential block off South Broadway — you do not stumble onto this, you have to be told it's there. Inside the compound: a locally-made horror and occult shop, an in-house apothecary slinging perfume elixirs and spell candles, HORRID Tattoo, and a horror-themed coffee shop called SCR3AM & SUGAR. There's also Creepatorium, an alternative event space, if you want your weirdness with a crowd. It's the rare oddities spot that's both a real working business and a genuine local secret.

The move: Browse the macabre goods together, get matching little horror flash from the tattoo studio if you're feeling brave, then grab coffee at SCR3AM & SUGAR and compare what creeped you out most.
