The Mary-Lou Malone: A Mocktail That’s To Die For
Our Halloween-inspired mocktail series continues, and this time we’re paying homage to the prom queen of horror: Mary Lou Maloney from Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II. This mocktail is every bit as fun, naughty, and iconic as the killer queen herself. Perfect for costume parties or a spooky night in, The Mary-Lou Malone will have you toasting to terror in style!
Why Prom Night II?
Prom Night II introduced us to one of horror’s most wicked characters: Mary Lou Maloney, a prom queen who met a fiery end only to return as a vengeful spirit. After her death, Mary Lou doesn’t just haunt her ex-boyfriend—she takes over a whole new body to reign terror. Like Mary Lou, this mocktail is fiery, vibrant, and totally unforgettable, making it the perfect addition to your Halloween party.
