A POPULAR York bar and restaurant will host a series of wicked events in the run up to Halloween.

The Botanist, based in Stonegate, says it will play host to ‘the scariest night of trivia around’ with a Halloween quiz on October 25.

There will also be musical bingo, featuring live music from a local artist, with prizes to be won for testing musical knowledge and matching song titles to their artists on the bingo cards.

The Botanist said: “Winning players at all events will be either be given a trick or treat, but good times are guaranteed either way! All events are free to get involved in and start at 8pm.”

The hosts have also arranged for a request night on October 27, where their talented resident artists will take song requests from the audience – as long as they are spooky.
