Tales from the Dorkside gives October a comedy-club detour, with a named evening of jokes and spooky-season humor at Addison Improv. The venue bills it as a night of laughs with a few chills, making it a lighter alternative to spending the evening inside a haunted house. Settle in with a date or a table of friends, and leave the scares to the comics. This is an 18+ ticketed show. Plan for the club’s separate two-item minimum; food and nonalcoholic drinks count toward it.
