Horror aficionados from across the across the region are invited to The Public in West Bromwich this Halloween to take part in the ultimate horror movie endurance test!

Films to be shown throughout the night include, American sci-fi horror, The Mist, 1974 cult gem, Zombies of Sugar Hill, Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn, and gruesome British independent, Mum & Dad.  An audience vote will help determine a fifth film screened on the night, with those booking in advance able to select which horror classic concludes the night’s entertainment.

Throughout the evening and into the early hours of the morning, The Public’s sleep deprived guests will be able to tuck into a selection of Halloween themed food and drink including a delicious range of film nibbles and spooky cocktails, with the odd surprise thrown in.
