A music club fire in Romania killed at least 27 people late Friday night.
Officials from Bucharest say an overflow crowd of young partygoers were packing a nightclub, when pyrotechnics started a fire, causing a panic and an enormous blaze.
162 were injured on top of the 62 deaths, CNN reports.
The nightclub, Collectiv, had only one exit and is a club built out of an old Communist-era factory.
Halloween 2015 opened on solemn terms with the Bucharest fire, and a plane crash of a Russian airliner in Egypt that killed 227.
This is believed to be the deadliest nightclub fire since a 2013 Santa Maria, Brazil fire that killed 235. The band playing in Bucharest Friday night was “Goodbye to Gravity,” whose hit 2015 song “The Day We Die” was playing at the time of the fire according to some accounts on social media, and the Daily Mail. The bassist of that band is now missing.
