Halloween is a holiday for sluts and children. And we here at Crossfade don't really care about kids.
Miami does it super big, and there are only about a bajillion Halloween-themed parties this weekend. But because you can't go to everything, we've boiled our music and party guide down to the ten most exciting and bizarre bashes.
Trick or treat, motherfuckers. Here's hoping you get lucky.
