Strong points: steady energy, clear focus, elevated mood, reliable endurance.
Weak points: heavy stim load, not for beginners, possible crash if dosed high.
Fast impressions: this isn’t your average “pump and go” pre.
It’s a punch in the face wrapped in caffeine and dark ambition.
Scary Hours isn’t trying to be friendly.
It’s built like a ritual for people who want to feel possessed in the gym.
From the first scoop, you can tell it’s playing in the high-stim league.
The formula reads like a roll call of chaos: L-Citrulline Malate, Beta-Alanine, Betaine, Eria Jarensis, 2-Aminoisoheptane, and Noopept. that combo screams focus, aggression, tunnel vision.
The brand leans into its whole “dark era” vibe. phrases like “prepare for the darkness ahead” actually fit.
It’s more performance cult than lifestyle brand, but that’s the charm.
The trade-off is clear: it’s built for raw intensity, not for smooth, everyday training.
If you want consistent mild energy, look elsewhere.
This one feels like it was made for late-night lifters who blast metal and chase that endorphin euphoria.
First scoop came in smooth.
No jitters, no rush, just that steady “let’s go” kind of energy.
Focus hit later, not tunnel vision, more like you could joke mid-set and still lock back in right away.
Heart rate stayed chill even on heavy lifts.
Energy held up for a good hour and a half with no crash after.
Pumps were okay solo, better stacked.
It felt strong but not chaotic, and I actually felt normal after, not drained or wired.
Pros
Explosive energy and tunnel focus.
Great nitric oxide and endurance support.
Mood elevation from Eria Jarensis and Noopept.
Serious pumps and performance boost.
Cons
Too strong for stim-sensitive users.
Possible crash if taken on low food or sleep.
Tingles and jitters if tolerance is low.
Use it if
You love high-stim pre-workouts.
You train hard, late, and heavy.
You enjoy that locked-in, euphoric buzz.
Skip it if
You’re sensitive to caffeine or DMHA-like compounds.
You prefer smooth, pump-focused formulas.
You have heart issues, anxiety, or poor sleep.
Scary Hours doesn’t play it safe. It’s a heavy mix of proven performance and intense stimulation.
L-Citrulline Malate (5000mg): Supports nitric oxide production for better blood flow and endurance.
Beta-Alanine (3200mg): Reduces muscle fatigue by buffering lactic acid, giving that familiar tingling kick.
Betaine Anhydrous (3000mg): Boosts strength, hydration, and overall power output.
Caffeine Anhydrous (400mg): Sharp, immediate energy with heightened alertness.
2-Aminoisoheptane (200mg): High-impact stimulant for focus and drive.
Eria Jarensis (150mg): Mood enhancer and concentration booster.
Noopept (20mg): Cognitive enhancer that sharpens mental clarity and focus.
It’s worth noting that this formula rides the line of what most people can comfortably tolerate.
It’s effective, but definitely not for beginners.
Start small. Seriously.
Begin with half a scoop (7.5g) mixed with about 10–12 fl. oz of water, around 30 minutes before training.
Assess your tolerance before even thinking about a full scoop.
Once you know your limit, a full scoop (15g) is where the magic happens.
Take it on an empty stomach for the cleanest kick, and drink plenty of water during your session.
If you stack, pair it with a non-stim pump product to balance the intensity without overdoing caffeine.
If you live for that all gas, no brakes energy, Scary Hours is absolutely worth it.
It’s formulated to deliver balanced energy and focus in a single scoop.
For stim junkies and serious lifters, it delivers the kind of high-performance rush that feels supernatural.
For casual gym-goers or anyone caffeine-sensitive, this will be way too much.
Bottom line: Scary Hours is not here to play nice. It’s here to test your limits.
I really liked this one. Experience is very smooth, clean. Provides good energy, focus and it has legit DMHA feel to it. More on the euphoric, mood elevation pres like Zeus, Kilo Labs Supreme, Hive v2, Stim Shady. Closest thing it feels like is toned down Maniaco.
Scoop is a lil heavy even on almost flat scoop. 16 grams worked just fine for me. 25 serving is a great.
Flavor is Strawberry Snowcone. Very sweet enjoyable. Unique taste to it
Post workout buzz is there, also feeling good, light. No side effects with this one.
Price is a lil above the average high stim pres which is 56$. And not available everywhere. If you are looking for clean DMHA experience with a mood elevation and euphoric kick, then you can grab this one and add to your collection. They have released new limited edition for Halloween which has alpha Yo for a stronger kick. I use Scary hours in the beginning of my stim cycle,because after using hardcore pres like Dark Labs it might not hit as good as it can. This pre workout actually feels pretty clean, you don't feel unhealthy or your health, Cardiovascular side being comprised. So I'd say you can take it 2-3 times a week, spaces out of course
Energy/Power 8/10
