The Great Horror Movie Night Outdoor Screening Series is Returning to L.A. Starting in March

February 2, 2016 by Brian Champlin

Readers of this blog may remember last spring when we told you about a spooky night-time movie screening of The Exorcist held in Griffith Park brought to you by the same folks who created the Haunted Hayride and the Great Horror Campout.

Well, for 2016 they’re back and this time around the Great Horror Movie Night series is getting off to an early start by kicking things off with a trio of scary screenings starting in March, and then continuing on once a month into May.

The series will begin on March 11 with a showing of Poltergeist at the old abandoned zoo in Griffith Park followed by a April 1 screening of The Shining, then concluding with Friday the 13th (on Friday, May 13!).

We listed the complete schedule and links for more information and tickets below.

Should additional screenings be added we’ll be sure to update this post with the latest info.

Tickets for screenings are regularly priced at $15 per person. We also spotted some discount tickets to the Poltergeist, The Shining and the Friday the 13th screening via Goldstar, if you want to scoop those up before supplies run out. In either case, it’s good to shop and compare before purchase.

ALSO: Keep in mind these are pretty scary flicks and may not be suitable for younger viewers.

Based on the rules for last year, food and picnics will probably be allowed (this is just a guess), but no alcohol of any kind. Be sure to check the official website or contact the organizers to confirm.

Parking is free, and first-come first-serve. No overnight parking!
