Too old for trick-or-treating? Still love to dress up? Like horror films?
Gesa Power House Theatre will screen a classic horror film, followed by a costume contest and after party this Halloween, Tuesday, October 31 starting at 7:00 p.m.
Horror Film:
George R. Romero’s 1968 film “Night of the Living Dead” is a cult classic credited with popularizing the concept of “zombies” as we think of them today. It was criticized at the time for its explicitly gory special effects, and ushered in a new wave of “splatter” horror films. The film’s plot follows a group of characters who barricade themselves in an old farmhouse in an attempt to remain safe from flesh eating monsters – the dead come back to life.
Costume Contest:
Contestants for the costume contest are encouraged to show up by 6:30 p.m. to give the judges more time to evaluate their costumes. Fun photo opportunities will be available at several “selfie stations” set up around the theater. Following the film screening (at approximately 8:45 p.m.), trophies and prizes will be awarded in the categories of Best Costume, Funniest, Most Creative and Sexiest.
After Party:
Stay for an After Party in the Electric Lounge hosted by Chardonnay (Jimmy Vaughan). Anyone in costume will receive drink discounts all night.
General admission tickets ($13) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500.
