One weekend left in October and we’re celebrating with our last two spooky movies as we get geared up for the Spooktacular.

Join us down on Maine Street on Oct. 31 from 4-6 p.m. for this safe trick-or-treating event with a ton of fun activities and things to see: Dairy Farmers of America is hosting a spider web toss, the Vitalant Blood Mobile will be on site for donations, Todd Moretto will be DJ-ing, Churchill County Sheriff’s Office will be reading stories, Street Golf and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu will be hosting activities and equipment from Cheek Construction, Search and Rescue, Banner Hospital, and the CCFD will be on display.

This is such a fun small-town tradition and we have many generous sponsors who help make it happen.

On Friday and Saturday, we have the 1995 fantasy comedy, “Casper,” playing at 6 p.m. An afterlife therapist and his daughter meet a friendly young ghost when they move into a crumbling mansion to rid the premises of wicked spirits. This movie is rated PG.

Also showing this weekend, we have the original 1978 horror film, “Halloween,” at 7 p.m. Fifteen years after murdering his sister on Halloween night in 1963, Michael Myers escapes from a mental hospital and returns to the small town of Haddonfield, Ill., to kill again.

This film is rated R.

Both movies are free so please come down to join us while the lobby is still decorated from our Monster Movie Weekend as those will be coming down soon to make way for our epic Christmas decorations.

And if you know you know: Our yearly interactive Rocky Horror Picture Show event will be held this Saturday night starting at 9 p.m. Bring your own prop bags (please nothing wet or sticky), or we’ll have a few to purchase.

Admission for this film is $10, mainly because the cleanup afterward is pretty epic, so give yourself over to absolute pleasure and join us at the theatre for all the singing, dancing, heckling, throwing chaos.

Looking forward into November, we have Lee Hardin on stage for live comedy on Nov. 15 and Steve & Raena performing live as well on Nov. 23. You can find more information on Facebook, Instagram, or our website, www.fallontheatre.com.
