Haunted Heart: Toxic R&B Costume Party at High Tide

Halloween week usually means loud club nights, so a Wednesday party built around slow jams and bad decisions in love stands out. Haunted Heart: Toxic R&B Costume Party takes over High Tide in downtown LA on October 28, and the listing frames it as a night of haunted hearts, an R&B journey through the dark side of romance. If you are scanning things to do in Los Angeles during the last week of October, this one is easy to place on the list.

When: Wednesday, October 28, 2026, 8 PM to 1 AM Where: High Tide, 605 E 4th St, Los Angeles, CA 90013 Price: $8.88 on DICE

What to expect

The event page describes an immersive world where desire, obsession, longing, jealousy, fantasy and red flags come to life, with the ghosts of lovers past wandering the room. Guests are invited to call their lovr, enter their fantasy, investigate the red flags and eventually find their way to the LOVR Lounge. The night is billed under the 1-800-LOVR name.

The soundtrack runs from slow jams to toxic anthems, so expect R&B you can sing along to and a few songs you probably should not text anyone to. The flyer lists live DJs, activations and surprises, and it bills the night as a hi-fi R&B party meets sensory playground.

Costumes

Come dressed for the occasion. The listing says the best costume wins, and the flyer promotes a costume contest. The theme leaves plenty of room: a literal ghost of an ex, a red flag, a heartbreak villain, or something more romantic and a little haunted. A look that photographs well under red lighting will help, since the flyer leans hard on red and black.

Tickets and practical info

Tickets are sold through DICE at $8.88, which is a low price for a themed night with a contest and live DJs. The event page is the only source we have, so check it before you go for door policy, age limits and any change to the schedule. Doors open at 8 PM and the party runs until 1 AM, so you can arrive early for a drink and still get a full night in, even on a school or work night.

Getting there

High Tide sits at 605 E 4th St, on the eastern edge of downtown LA. Parking nearby can be tight in the evening, so a rideshare or the Metro into downtown and a short walk is the easiest plan, and a ride home after 1 AM is simpler than circling for a spot.
