There's a lot of coffee in the world—most of it forgettable, a lot of it decent, and a small fraction of it? Pure magic. The kind that doesn't just wake you up, but awakens something in you. That's the coffee we're after.

So here we are, knee-deep in sacks of beans, chasing the ghosts of flavors yet to be discovered.

We've sampled a lot of great coffee. But rather than rush the process, slap a label on it, and call it a day, we want more from our coffee at Spooky Grounds. We're not just finding a coffee—we're summoning it. Every batch, every roast, every goddamn bean is put through its paces. We brew, we taste, we curse when it's not right, and we start again.

Right now, we're sampling beans from different regions, different roasters, testing what works and what falls flat. Some come in promising exotic flavors and depth, but taste like hot disappointment. Others surprise us, sneaking in with notes we didn't expect, a lingering finish like a well-told ghost story.

This isn't about just having good coffee. It's about finding coffee that belongs in the Spooky Grounds Carnival—something dark, rich, and just a little mischievous. The kind of coffee that whispers, one more cup won't kill you... probably.

Eventually, we'll find it. The perfect beans for the show's opening act. Looking for a show with audience participation? What do you love in a coffee? What's the roast level that makes your soul sing? Smooth and balanced? Dark and brooding? Something with an edge? Flavored!? All are welcome!

So send us an email, sign up for the monthly news letter for deals, discounts and some freakshow fun, or hell, just yell into the void and hope we hear you.

Because when we finally unveil Spooky Grounds' first official roast, we want you to know—it was worth the wait.
