Haus of Horror, the horror-themed bar on San Pedro Avenue, has gone eerily quiet less than a year after opening, with signs pointing to a shutdown that has regulars and performers feeling ghosted.
The venue's Instagram has not seen a new post since May 23, callers say the listed phone number now goes straight to a disconnected signal, and Google currently shows the business as "temporarily closed." On top of that, the bar has been publicly flagged over unpaid bills, adding a financial chill to its already silent footprint. For the movie night die-hards and alt-drag performers who treated the spot like a second home, the sudden blackout has raised a lot of questions and not many answers.
What the reporting shows
According to CultureMap San Antonio, Haus of Horror took over the former Luna Fine Music Club space at 6740 San Pedro Ave and officially opened in late November 2025. CultureMap notes that the bar's last social media activity was the May 23 Instagram post, its phone line now plays a disconnected signal, and its Google Business listing currently reads "temporarily closed." The outlet also reports that a request for comment sent via Instagram direct message has not been answered.
Why a TABC delinquent listing matters
One of the biggest red flags for any bar in Texas is a spot on the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission's Credit Law Delinquent List. That designation blocks wholesalers from selling or delivering distilled spirits, wine, or malt liquor to the business, which can effectively choke off the supply chain a bar needs to function.
As laid out by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, retailers stay on the delinquent list until they clear their outstanding credit debts, and distributors are barred from making alcohol deliveries as long as the listing is active. For independent, late-night venues that rely on regular shipments to stock the bar, that kind of legal roadblock can turn a rough patch into a temporary closure or even a permanent shutdown.
Where Haus of Horror fit in the local scene
Haus of Horror leaned hard into its theme, with DIY horror decor, karaoke, and weekly Cinemonsters screenings, and it became a reliable stage for alt-drag performers, according to the reporting. CultureMap San Antonio notes that several other goth-leaning spots, including Libros, Near Dark, and Cream II, have also disappeared from the scene over the past year, while a handful of venues such as Last Caress and Southtown House of Spirits are still hanging on.
Neighbors and early fans documented the December 2025 opening in online community threads, including a Reddit announcement that followed the bar's first weeks in business. For now, those posts and public records are some of the only traces left of the concept at 6740 San Pedro Ave.
The future of the space remains uncertain. With the venue's social media accounts quiet and no public statements from owners or managers, local performers and patrons say they are watching for any official update. In the meantime, regulators' listings and the bar's digital silence offer a stark reminder of how quickly financial and licensing pressures can pull the plug on a small nightlife spot.
