St. Paul Movies in the Parks Scary Movies Series

Love scary movies? Check out the Scary Movies Series happening Friday nights at select St. Paul area parks!

When you think of Movies in the Park events, you usually think of summer, right? Well, St. Paul is keeping the outdoor movie fun going with their free Scary Movies Series Friday nights in October.

One bonus: since sunset is much earlier than it was in the summer, movies start earlier. Movies typically begin at dusk.

Bring along a blanket or a lawn chair so you have a place to sit, of course! All children under 10 years of age must be accompanied by an adult. Rated R movies are 18+ events.

Here’s the schedule of movies and where each movie is being hosted:

Friday, October 2: The Blair Witch Project (R) at Hidden Falls Regional Park

BONUS: There will be a special Spooky Saint Paul interactive mystery event before the movie. Tickets for this adventure are $25/person and must be purchased in advance.

Friday, October 9: Hocus Pocus (PG) at Como Park Midway Pavilion

For this fan favorite movie, costumes are encouraged! More special activities may be announced once they are finalized.

Friday, October 16: The Nightmare Before Christmas (PG) at Battle Creek Recreation Center

Prepare for scares as tour guides lead participants through Battle Creek Regional Park woods before the movie. There will be lots of games and food trucks (food for purchase) for your enjoyment while you wait to embark on your trail journey.

Friday, October 23: Halloween (R) at Mears Park

Please note: Movies are weather dependent and subject to change without notice.

Movies in the Parks are pet friendly events, but pets must be kept on a leash no longer than 6 feet at all times. Unless otherwise noted, all movies will be closed captioned in English.
