There will be those spending this Halloween weekend trick-or-treating, going to costume parties, dressing up as a sexy version of (insert real or fake person here), etc. Then, there are those who celebrate All Hallows’ Eve by watching scary movies. It turns out a lot of spots in Houston have you covered.

Here is a rundown of theaters, hangout spots, and open-air venues that’ll be unspooling all kinds of horror this weekend:

AMC Theatres will close out its “Welcome to Horrorwood” series with screenings of The Crow on Friday and Saturday night. There will also be Friday screenings of The Nightmare Before Christmas and Friday & Saturday screenings of the original 1996 Scream.

Downtown Houston will celebrate Dia de Los Muertos early on Friday night. That’s when it will have a free outdoor screening of the Disney/Pixar hit Coco over at Trebly Park, for all the families who celebrate the Day of the Dead.

Eastbound Barbecue will have some family-friendly, Halloween movie nights, screening KPop Demon Hunters on Friday and Hocus Pocus on Saturday. There will be a K-pop-themed costume contest before Friday’s show. The prize: an Eastbound Barbecue gift card.
