Happy Hallo-days boos and ghouls! As we continue construction on our future main theater space in Beacon, NY, (which is coming along swimmingly, with many more improvements than we initially had planned), we wanted to make sure that you did not think we were forgetting about our favorite audience: people who LOVE scary movies.
This is our third year of hosting multiple scary movie pop-up events across Beacon, and our previous two years have been nothing short of wonderful. Each screening, (unless otherwise noted), is completely free and open to the public. And each of the hosting business locations will be supplying food and drink options for purchase throughout the screenings. So be sure to keep your eyes and ears open for special events and promotions happening throughout the coming months! It’s our favorite time of year and we have some truly fantastic flicks to share with you.
See you there!!!
