Tim Burton to get his own themed New York bar called Beetle House
Make sure you visit three times
The Statue of Liberty; Radio City; the Empire State Building - all must-visit New York destinations. Now you can add Tim Burton-themed bar Beetle House to that prestigious list.
There is indeed an East village hangout opening that is solely dedicated to the popular director's many films including Edward Scissorhands, Mars Attacks! and, of course, the 1988 horror comedy Beetlejuice.
Fans will be able to scour a food and drink menu layered with concoctions inspired by Burton's characters. The venue's website - which confirms the locale will be opening this week - bears the tagline: 'It's Halloween all year long!'
Food wise, you can order the Sweeney Beef (inspired by Burton's take on Sweeney Todd), Victor Van Pork (The Corpse Bride) and, the dish we're predicting will prove most popular, Edward Burger Hands (do you even need us to tell you?).
The many cocktails on offer include The Headless Horseman (Sleepy Hollow), the Jack Skellington (the Burton-produced Nightmare Before Christmas) and the Big Fish Bowl.
Beetle House's owners last year opened a Will Ferrell-inspired venue they named Stay Classy New York in reference to Anchorman.
Watch out for the sand worms.
