Old Town Music Haunt Information

Every Halloween, Old Town Music Hall transforms into Old Town Music Haunt. Programming in October consists mostly of classic black-and-white horror movies, including some cult films of later vintage. Most programming is family-friendly, but some films may to too intense for younger viewers. Silent films are accompanied by live music performed on the theatre’s massive Wurlitzer organ, which literally includes all the bells and whistles.

Old Town Music Hall sometimes include genre programming during the rest of the year, usually more science fiction than horror-oriented. For a time, there was a monthly Sci-Fi Tuesday.
