The Southampton Arts Center, located at 25 Jobs Lane, announced additional programming for the last two weeks of October to further scare and delight the community for Halloween, adding three creepy classic films to their schedule to accompany the SPOOKTACULAR HAUNTED HOUSE. Visitors are encouraged to make a night of it by meandering through the haunted house and then adjourning to the theater for screenings of Beetlejuice, Poltergeist, and the first annual screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

“We simply felt it was not enough to offer the delightfully quirky Chas Addams: Family and Friends exhibition as well as the return of the terrifying haunted house, but to truly make this spooky season complete with the addition of these definitive films. We envision the Southampton Arts Center as your one-stop-shop for terror this month!” said Director of Programs, Amy Kirwin.

Full Halloween offerings include:

After Barbara (Geena Davis) and Adam Maitland (Alec Baldwin) die in a car accident, they find themselves stuck haunting their country residence, unable to leave the house. When the unbearable Deetzes (Catherine O’Hara and Jeffrey Jones) and teen daughter Lydia (Winona Ryder) buy the home, the Maitlands attempt to scare them away without success. Their efforts attract Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton), a rambunctious spirit whose “help” quickly becomes dangerous for the Maitlands and innocent Lydia.

Strange and creepy happenings beset an average California family in their new home when ghosts commune with them through the television set.

In this cult classic, sweethearts Brad (Barry Bostwick) and Janet (Susan Sarandon), stuck with a flat tire during a storm, discover the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry), a transvestite scientist. As their innocence is lost, Brad and Janet meet a houseful of wild characters, including a rocking biker (Meat Loaf) and a creepy butler (Richard O’Brien). Through elaborate dances and rock songs, Frank-N-Furter unveils his latest creation: a muscular man named “Rocky.”
