The Robinson Grand Performing Arts Center will show two free movies:

 

At 4 p.m. is Hotel Transylvania. The 2012 animated comedy about Count Dracula's resort for monsters, is a FREE community screening sponsored by WYK Associates. Bring the kids or grandkids, settle into a historic theater and laugh along with a roomful of neighbors at slapstick that director Genndy Tartakovsky drew in the exaggerated style of hand-drawn cartoons. Tartakovsky, the creator of Dexter's Laboratory and Samurai Jack, set out to make these classic monsters funny, with Adam Sandler's Dracula leading a cast that includes Selena Gomez, Andy Samberg, Kevin James and Steve Buscemi.

 

At 9 p.m. will be John Carpenter's Halloween (1978), sponsored by The Twisted Spoke and L&L Auvil Insurance Agency. It is a film built for a dark room full of people-- the patient stalking shots, the figure behind the hedge and that synthesizer theme all building tension while a whole theater holds its breath together. 

 

The ZOMBIE PROM will take place 8-10:00 p.m.

 

Arrive before 8 p.m. for a special presentation you won't want to miss!

 

Come dressed in your favorite Halloween costume, bring your friends, and get ready for a spooktacular night of music, dancing, and Halloween excitement!

 

The Clarksburg-Harrison Public Library and the Waldomore will host a Trunk or Treat and Jack-o’-Lantern Contest.

The Jack-o’-Lantern Contest is from 5–8 p.m. with winners announced at 8 p.m. Trunk or Treat takes place 6–7:30 p.m.

Bring your already-carved pumpkin to the Waldomore between 5 and 6 p.m. to enter the contest. Battery-operated candles will be provided, and all ages are welcome to participate.
