comedy, halloween, haunted house, los angeles, ucb

On Halloween this Wednesday, there will any and all sorts of haunted houses that you can imagine all throughout LA.

For those looking for something a little funnier (and maybe a little less scary), but staying in the spirit of the night, you can check UCB’s version of a haunted house that they’re calling “Yanny or Laurel Present Internet Expl-Horror”.

Many of the UCB faithful will take over and utilized several of the rooms, spaces, common areas, closets at UCB Sunset to make for this immersive comedy experience.

They have four different times that you can enter this Wed., 7PM, 8PM, 9PM, and 10PM. Tickets are only $7 and you can and should get them here.

It’s that time of year again where comedians dress up as well known comedians for the wonderful annual event known as Schtick or Treat. Oh yeah, it’s also Halloween too.

Mark Normand and Matt Ruby’s creation is now 11 years old and a national phenomenon and always delivers on the costumed, fake versions of the comedians you know and/or love as you can see with Henry Zebrowski as Mike Myers/Austin Powers, Jason Saenz & Nick Turner (who are returning this year as the LA hosts) as Cheech and Chong, and Teresa Lee as Ali Song.

We got a pair of tickets (normally, they’re $15 online and $20 at the door) for you to win for Schtick or Treat, which is this Sunday at The Virgil. Just sign-up for our mailing list by e-mailing us at thecomedybureau@gmail.com ASAP.

Barack Obama has set the highest bar of how cool a president can be (as well as in touch with the youth of today and how to reach them). He’s been on Between Two Ferns, WTF with Marc Maron, and now, he will have been on Full Frontal with Samantha Bee.

At 10:30PM on October 31st, we hope you’re sober enough and partied out enough to catch that night’s episode of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee as it will include an interview with President Barack Obama. This is definitely a milestone for the show that, remember, just started earlier this year.

Undoubtedly, it’ll be on their YouTube page the next day if you did Halloween a little too hard.
