- In previous episodes I've taken you to Monster Themed restaurants and bars in New York City, Los Angels, Portland, Las Vegas, Mexico City, Tokyo and more! We've seen places based on vampires, werewolves, Godzilla, Frankenstein and more! Now, we turn our spooky, monster loving lens on monster themed establishments in Florida. We'll see the Universal Monsters on display at the Universal Studios Classic Monster's Cafe and a room full of wonderfully macabre Addams Family, Elvira and Nightmare Before Christmas inspired installations at Cocktails and Screams in Orlando! Then we'll venture to the Spookeasy Lounge in Tampa Florida. Come along for another spooky travel episode!

I have lived in this godforsaken sunshine beach state for 24 years of my life and I had no idea about any of these restaurants
Amalia Herrera Well, Cocktails & Screams has only been here a few months. Hopefully they’ll weather the quarantine.
@@JohnChadwick They reopen on the 15th! :)
According to their FB page with "proper social distancing and health measures of course."
Same here
I hate the sunshine too. Would some clouds or rain be so bad?! I hate socal
I absolutely love the idea of the Spookeasy Kava Lounge, almost as much as I love the name and decor. (The furniture looks beautiful!!) It is great that there's a place where people can go who want to avoid bars for whatever reason and/or those who want the social feeling of a lounge/bar without feeling pressured to consume alcohol. I've never really heard of a place like that before, short of juice bars or something, but I've especially never seen any this awesome looking. I wish there were more places that encouraged sobriety like this, especially given the theme of using something natural like Kava to ease your mind.
Also, good for you for featuring it despite it not serving alcohol! As someone who doesn't especially like the idea of bars, and who loves spooky rooms hidden behind bookshelves, this was quite a refreshing episode. Thank you for great content, as usual!
Also also, I want to try that Seitanwitch from Cocktails & Screams. It sounds amazing!
gssbcvegancat I go to the Spookeasy every week and it’s wonderful! Perfect for goths of any age.
I don't drink alcohol and I totally agree, very refreshing to have some alternatives to a typical bar!
Another Kava Bar I recommend is Mad Hatters in St. Pete! It's got beautiful murals themed with Burton's Alice as well as various other Alice art and decor. Great staff, yummy hot and cold drinks. Occasional fire/poi shows, games like chess and giant Connect Four are outside. :)
If you ever come back to Cleveland, Ohio you should go to LBM in Lakewood , its filled with Taxidermy/Skulls and a ton of cool Gothic/Norse/Scandinavian Decor/Motif even the best Spirits ^vv^.
I'm a simple goth, I see the phantom of the opera, I click.
I wish monster themed restaurants was a thing here in Sweden.
Wisconsin is the same way
Yeah and here in Finland too😕
@@metsanneito3 the only place i know thats goth is club anything in the downtown area
Just go to government lunch rooms
I'd prefer if they would be a thing in Germany, but Sweden would also be great. It would provide another good reason to go for a visit.
I appreciate the inclusion of a cool spot for sober people.
Oh, V, you are such a kick!! I bet your fiancee has loads of fun with someone like you by her side, you big kid! But just when I think you can't get any more fun, you go and reference one of my fave Bugs Bunny cartoons from when we were kids, the Mad Scientist and Giving Rudolf (Gossamer?) a Hairdo! (I'm not sure why the YT videos call the Monster, Gossamer, when the scientist calls him Rudolf, but go figger)
You know with all the sheltering-in-place still...in place, you'd think Ice Cream trucks and other roach coaches would be on the move circulating through neighborhoods..I mean they're like the ultimate food delivery service and they're usually Mom'n'Pop businesses that could use the support these days since the venues they normally cater to/at are shut for now.
Ha ha ha, I may be a late convert to the whole "fun and philosophical" aspects of horror, since I have never liked to scare myself deliberately with shock value/gore and profanity rooted scares when I was a kid (I didn't see my first R-rated movie until I was 15, and it was Tim Burton's take on Sweeney Todd.) I count my fascination with horror/mystery/suspense starting when I read Dracula and Poe stories on my own time after Corpse Bride came out in 2005, and starting with Nightmare Before Christmas the year previous. It's been 15 years since then.
However, I have been up for stellar attention to atmospheric detail, patronizing local/specialized artists for unique pieces, and devotion to delivering great food and atmosphere ever since I can remember. The Haunted Mansion has nothing on the moving portraits and visual overlays for Cocktails and Screams, and being someone who has always been sensitive to alcohol, the way you described your "unexpected discovery" in Ybor City made me excited to return to Florida again someday. I went there once when I had just graduated high school on a service trip in the Keys, but I didn't get too much time to wander around as a tourist since I was scuba diving, doing beach clean up, and kayaking in the ocean nearly every day. And considering Key West is one of the hotspots for American authors and hauntings, I thought you would be finding an entry for this video there, maybe making a nod to Robert the Doll.
Off topic but your song "goodnight demon slayer" has helped me deal with my PTSD. Thank you :)
As a Floridian with a love of horror, it's super nice to see these awesome places on display for the Internet! We have an awesome horror underground, and I'm glad you enjoyed it all!
I was so happy the Spookeasy was included! I saw the title and knew it had to be on the list, wonderful place with great quality kava, can’t wait to visit again!
I’m screaming in joy, I never thought I’d see myself in Voltaire’s video, if anyone comes to Ybor come back to the spookeasy!!
Ooh, some places I can visit without having to book a flight out-of-state! I’ve heard of Cocktails & Screams but forgot the name until you brought it up. The Spookeasy sounds pretty neat, too; definitely a go-to place should I ever pass by the area.
Wow... That's more then I expected.
Wish monster themed places were common in Serbia , because I like vampire stuff , and because , well , you would expect the country in which the stories of vampires originate would have a lot of vampire or monster based things.
Question , do you think of going back to some old songs and either re doing them or doing a new take on them , or just make a cover of them? As an example , the rock version of The Night , as well as the original version are epic , but they are so old.
You found an addams family themed spot?! sign me up! and orville shame on you for not watching these videos! man you got themes for everyone and you ducking and dodging well you do know how to sneak around.
@Belletaina oh heck yeah and we can have aurelio join us both lol if he wants to visit again
Oh my god you are such a friendly and fun guy! I can't believe I didn't upvote you sooner! I loved this video! :-)
Just two days ago I was thinking wish there were more restaurant videos. And now this notification. Nice.
Can't wait to see you in Tampa again! Now excited to try the spookeasy with my friends.
HERE COMES THE MAN IN BLACK......!!!!🧛♀️ 😎😎 THE ≤MIB≥ 🧛♀️ 😎😎
Voltaire, your such a great guy! Keep up the good work!!!
- Greetings from Germany
Tyfs 🙏🏽 I’m so glad I found you I am completely in love with your channel 👍🏽😎🥰😻
Wow! I used to play that Elivra pinball machine in Montreal for years! When you hit a certain bumper, it would say this funny line, "Thank you boys!" hehe
They also have ridiculously good milkshakes at spookeasy, and they’re moving to a bigger location in April! Come check out Gideon’s bakehouse too next time you’re in Florida!
You should come on over to Michigan! We have a wonderful little cafe called The Raven in port huron. It's full of delicious food, amazing drinks, and tons of gothic atmosphere.
Next time your back in Florida take a trip to to Jacksonville to check out Poe's Tavern. It's themed to Edgar Allan Poe with movie posters on the walls, pages of his books line the walls in the restroom and recording of the stories play in there. The food is named after his work I'd you go j would suggest the Rue Morgue. This was my favorite restaurant when I lived in Jax
Me : alas still no phantom content I shall perish before they have a phantom related restaurant to review
* SEES 3:08 * * SEES 3:49 *
Also me: ITS NOT MUCH BUT IM MORE THEN SATISFIED
Another phantom phan, I love it!
I died when I saw the phantom!! He needs to make a video or a song related to the phantom of the opera. I loved hearing him sing music of the night
Wonderful - can't wait til I can visit these in my own hometown state!!!
I'm so jealous. Melbourne is so hipster and boring that we don't get anything close to any of this places
more tea lounges for socializing would be great. baby bats have few places to socialize
Heads up this needs a update the universal one is closed permanently 😭😭😭😭 also am I miss remembering or did you get mr Orval from the oddity shop in nyc that you where on the show I remember that was how I first heard about you
I'm in love with these episodes. My son and I are starting a list with the places we'd like to visit.
This episode made me wonder if there are any monster themed ice cream shops
Voltarie.Did you ever watched Daria Ochens work.I cant find your reaction.
I've been to Universal Studios but that was way back in the 90s when I was 13 do they still have Back to the Future the ride? I need to stop watching these videos it just fuels my wonderlust I had wanted to go on a vacation on go somewhere this year but....
I guess I know what my dream establishment is now! A scifi Goth tea room!
My hubby and I plan to celebrate my birthday at SpookEasy Lounge this summer. I heard the place moved to another spot in Tampa.
I normally listen to the music on this channel but this is also amazing keep it up! ^-^
Excellent episode! That was fun tagging along vicariously with you Voltaire.
HERE COME THE 👽😎😎🧛♀️ HERE COME THE MEN I BLACK!!!👽😎😎🧛♀️ ≤ THE MIB≥😎😎🧛♀️
Kava and Kratom are both pretty big in Tampa/St Pete. Its a really great scene, and lots of kava bars have fun themes and art! Glad you got to visit Spookeasy!
As a friend of Bill W I can totally appreciate that last spot. I need a creepy place in my area like this! ☠🤘🖤🦇
This is one of my favorite episodes. I love the monsrer themed restaurant episodes. Thank you so much for the music, Globlin, and this channel. You are a true treasure.
I am looking forward to being able to travel to new places.
Wow! I’m so honored! I have appeared in a video with... Orville! 😉 Enjoy me stuffing my face everyone!
Sadly, it was announced today the Universal’s Monster Café has permanently closed.
My apologies in advanced, but even as gimmicky as the monster cafe was, I NEED TO VISIT IT AS BIG OF A UNIVERSAL MONSTER FAN I AM!! AHHHH!!!
COCKTAILS AND SCREAMS IS GREAT. My favorite 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
You right down the street from THE CASTLE. That place is amazing. It deserves an entire episode alone
And if you go back to cocktail and screams try the Praise Cheesus. That's my favorite... Its to die for 🧛♂️
I wonder if there are any other spooky themed tea houses or lounges... That would make an awesome segment too!
Your videos are so thorough and you find the BEST places!!! 🖤🤍🖤🤍
Ah darling Erik! I love “The Phantom of the Opera”. As for Kava Tea, it’s nice to hear that there are goth places for us teatollers.
EXCUSE YOU?!?! You’re telling me there is a spooky, gothic TEA LOUNGE less than 2 hours from me!?!?! Why has no one told me this before! Man...if it wasn’t for stupid Florida and being stupid during this pandemic and not following rules I could have tried to arrange something there for my birthday or something later this year....huh maybe next year if we’re still alive. Lol 😂 💀
WOW MONSTER CAFE I LOVE IT SOMEDAY ME AND MY HUSBAND AND MY FAMILY WE GO TO THE RESTAURANT.
The Bride Is Hot. Just Throwing That Out There. Also,I'm Hoping There Is A Place Like These In Canada (Though I'm Sadly Doubting It) Cause That's Where I Live And It Would Be Nice To Have Options At Least A LITTLE Closer To Home.>_
Does anyone know Mr Voltaire's P.O Box??
I wanna send goodies from New Zealand 🇳🇿❤️✌️
Much love 🖤🌹
Man, I hate that I didn't go into the monster cafe when I was in universal. The spiders on the ceiling are AMAZING🤧
Oh shit you did went to cocktails and screams. Witches brew was my all time favorite. Man I miss that place. Next time I'll travel to Tampa I'm going to check out the spookeasy
My first thought was 'ohhh I hope he checks out the Classic Monster Cafe in Universal and Cocktails and Screams.' Look at you getting right to it.
While not "monster" themed, The Gas Station in Bastrop, TX is where The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was filmed, in part. Apparently there's lots of memorabilia and BBQ to DIE for. I plan on stopping on my way to working at a haunt next month and can confirm the reviews I've read.
I think there's some here in Kentucky,especially during October when the Zombie Walk and Talon Falls are open. You'd LOVE it at Talon,as there's monster themed everything there. Worked there 2 years,it was amazing. And the Zombie walk is a hoot~
I wish go on travel but we can’t go. We stay home is boring and shit. I don’t know why they still on cornavirus so long time. I am so angry at them. I want go out but I am stuck in my apt. I love go to Disney in florida. 👍👍😊😘🤟🏽🙌🏽🖤💜📱
Next time you're in the Los Angeles area you should check out The Cauldron in Buena Park, right across the street from Knott's Berry Farm. It's a witch themed bar with French food.
Now I am extra sad that the pandemic forced me to change my travel plans. I missed your Orlando show AND cool restaurants and bars. Maybe someday...
Great video! I go to Florida every year just to do Halloween Horror Nights and the Monster Cafe is fun! October is the best time to check out Orlando in my opinion. It's not as hot as it is the rest of the year. Plus, lots of places sell Halloween exclusive items! Even if you don't want to pay the price to go to Disney I would also suggest checking out Disney springs, you can get a lot of cool Haunted mansion themed stuff without paying the price of going to the park! I had never heard of Cocktails and Screams before! I HAVE to go there this year! Thanks again for the video Voltaire!
My home state! The last two places were admittedly my favorite. I watch Obscura Undead and they have had a few episodes filmed there as well as music interviews with goth bands. Some cool places to visit for sure.💀🕸️🦇
When you come to England you should stop off in Nottingham and visit the Pit and Pendulum a bar dedicate to one of the masters of Gothic horror - Edgar Allan Poe www.eerie-pubs.co.uk/pit-pendulum I'd be happy to show you around and of course you can visit one the oldest pubs in England which served drinks to the crusaders!
If you guys love bats like I do.. Please check out the batgoods.com. everything you buy goes to bat conservation and they have unique items for your home, jewelry, all kinds of things related to bats. Please check it out I love this store!! Bat antiques as well.
Hey Voltaire, I was curious on something. You heard of the UA-cam Channel Dead Meat? Its a channel that honors and keeps a a kill count on favorite and some unpopular horror films. As I like the channel and know you to be a fan of all things horror. I ask check em out, they're awesome people
Hey Voltaire, would you be able to find restaurants that include Freddy Krueger, Jason, or Michael Myers or any of those guys?
Oh wow! I was in the background waiting in line for the show! I’m honored to be in your video! 🖤 awesome!
Me and my brothers reaction when hearing the ice cream truck, because it only starts driving around at 7-8pm because it totally sells drugs on the side. 🤣🤣
Yay! My state isn't a complete lost cause. Lol
Adding Cocktails and Screams to my must do list next time I convince my husband to go to Florida
Visit Omaha, NE......Monster Club is amazing!
Well hope fully I will be in Orlando in September so I will check out the universal monster restaurant out. Great gothic home making as always and next time your that way check out the bone museum near the Orlando eye it’s awesome. Think I mentioned it before. Stay well dark prince x
Love this! Would love to visit these places! So cool... love your videos...🖤🖤🖤
I love your Music and your Book "Paint it Black". Ist a really Masterpiece. :)
If you find yourself in Tampa again, we'd just about die to see you at Alchemy and Ashes! It's a gothic metaphysical and antiques shop with a flare for the macabre. Just about 20 minutes or so from Ybor! The Spookeasy owners actually often shop with us here, they're the coolest people! I'd also recommend checking out Dysfunctional Grace for oddities and taxidermy! I'm sure you might've heard of Ravens and Rockers already as they're heavily involved with the Vampire's Ball at The Castle in Ybor, but if not, they're an excellent little gothic clothing store with more of the best people in town running it! Not a lot of people know about Tampas spooky/goth scene, but I love sharing as much of it as I possibly can!
Thanks for the tips! I will definitely try to check those out.
Mr voltaire, i love your work and your music always help me to overcome my problems,thanks for all :)
I loved this place when my friend took me to Universal studios. I love all the decor they had there.
I live in Orlando. Sadly due to the pandemic Cocktails and Screams shut down. It was so cool, and had lots of orbs! 👻 Ybor is an amazing place. The Castle gothic club is the bomb! 😈
Shut down *permanently*???
I always make sure to eat at the Monster Cafe every year when I go to Halloween Horror Nights. Seals the whole spooky deal.
Of course. It's always behind ze bookcase.
I saw Florida and immediately clicked on it because I live in Orlando. I already go to Cocktails and Screams and The Spookeasy often. You should check out the Castle if you haven't. Its a huge goth club a few minutes away from the Spookeasy
OHMYGAWD! Thank you for showing the Spookeasy. I'm "dying" to check it out.
I need something like this in my town
Update the restaurant is no longer there it use to be my favorite to go with the meal deal 😢
You got BBQ- most BBQ places serve their meats and sides on a tray like that. Easier to clean and more room to eat.
Oh, the Spook-Easy is such a great concept! We need more places like that!
Again, Thank You for including vegan items.
That Addams Family room sounds great! Of course, I'm inspired to create something in my house now 🎃
Does anyone know of any monster themed restaurants or anything with a spooky/goth aesthetic in Indiana?
Great episode!!
Of all your monster theme restaurants, these are my very favorite. I just loved them 💜
Check out spookys in Walter Hill TN.
If they had a tea bar around where I lived that would be cool
I have the same cup from the tea lounge but its purple and i use it as a candy dish💀💜
I wish monster themed restaurants was a common here in Istanbul .
Can you make a monster themed restaurant video for LA? 🖤
THE ADDAMS FAMILY ROOM I WANT THAT AND THE WITCH BAR BUT ME NO HAVE MONEYYYYYY
Rest in peace, universal monsters cafe
