Get Out: Our picks of the best things to do for Fri. the 13th (and the rest of the weekend) in ABQ (Nov. 12)

This weekend gifts us with another Friday the 13th. (They only happen once every 212 days, give or take.) If you’re particularly superstitious, I guess you might think about staying home. But for a lot of folks, Friday the 13th is a fine excuse to get out and look for some mischief. It’s sort of a “bonus” Halloween, allowing people to engage in more supernatural shenanigans: watching horror movies, listening to creepy music and shopping for eerie accoutrement. This coming Friday the 13th offers Albuquerqueans a wide variety of events that seem at least a bit appropriate for the day in question. So why not push your luck, pet any black cats you see and celebrate Friday the 13th by hanging out with a few strangers (in every sense of the word)?
