Easter Everywhere (1967) is the second album from the Texas psychedelic rock band 13th Floor Elevators. The album was originally released as an LP by International Artists. It was long a hard-to-find collectors' item, until re-released as a CD from Collectables Records, catalog number COL-CD-0553, in 1993.

The album features the band's distinctive sound on songs ranging from their own psychedelic masterpiece "Slip Inside this House" to a straightforward cover of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue". "I've Got Levitation" ranks among the band's most iconic songs, with its Tommy Hall penned lyrics and its twisted blues sensibilities, while "Postures" displays a distinct Motown influence.
