Very cool place! Great owner. Great books. They are super nice and knowledgeable. It’s very family friendly here. Just fair warning, The owner likes to dress like his dog. So, you may see him dressed in a dog suit from time to time,

Some pretty professional ghouls in this joint. If you don't have the pleasure of stopping in physically they have a great online store!

The staff are helpful and welcoming. Max, the owner is awesome (he is a horror author too)!! They have horror books that you won't find in other retail bookstores and a few signed copies. They carry spooky books for YA, middle, and kids too. This is my favorite bookstore!! 🤓🖤

The Ghoulish Show Takes Over Radio Coffee & Beer for Special Halloween Extravaganza

On the last Tuesday of every month, we are lucky enough to host The Ghoulish Show live at Radio Coffee & Beer in Austin, TX. Never in our wildest dreams would we have imagined the last Tuesday of this month falling on freakin’ HALLOWEEN, yet calendars do not lie, and it looks like that is exactly what’s happening. A spooky variety comedy show on Halloween night. What the hell, ghouls? How is this real? We don’t know, but we refuse to question it. Instead, we embrace the day—the greatest day on earth, as far as we are concerned.

If you have nothing else going on this Halloween, consider stopping by Radio to check out our special Halloween extravaganza. Wear a costume and you’ll be entered into our costume contest. The winner will get a fun prize to be announced during the contest. There will also be weirdo horror comedy skits, authors reading spooky stories, and other fun activities—including a mini horror book fair! What more could you hope for? Even if you DO already have plans, cancel them! This will be better than anything else you could’ve done.

Join us this Halloween as we literally raise the motherfucking dead, my beautiful & disgusting ghouls.

Address: 4204 Menchaca Rd, Austin, TX 78704
