Served in a 10-ounce mug, the $1 Vampire is bloody delicious with a mix of rum, strawberry, dragon fruit, passion fruit and a dash of pineapple. And, if you're scrambling for a last-minute costume, Applebee's $1 Vampire has you covered with complimentary vampire fangs…and a literal cherry on top. Share your fangtastic pics with our freaky tiki rum punch using #DollarVampire.

From the color to the garnish of the $1 Vampire, each detail was crowd sourced to create Applebee's latest undead libation.

"The $1 Vampire is a freaky tiki drink served with a side of fangs," said Patrick Kirk, vice president of beverage innovation at Applebee's. "Seriously, where else can you buy a delicious cocktail and walk away with a Halloween costume for only a buck?"

Price, participation, and availability of the Neighborhood Drink of the Month may vary by location, and guests must be 21 years old or over to enjoy responsibly. Void where prohibited.

As always, Applebee's reminds you to please drink responsibly.
