Fright Night at McCollough features new and nostalgic horror films, spooky board games (play one of ours or bring your own!), and a casual adults-only hangout filled with scares, nostalgia, and fun.

Fright Night at McCollough is not your typical movie night. It’s a social gathering for adult horror fans who want more than just a seat in front of a screen. This after-hours event invites you to connect with fellow horror lovers, revisit nostalgic horror, and dive into games that explore the darker corners of your imagination.

Have a favorite creepy or strategic game? Bring it along and introduce it to the group, or play one of ours. Looking for something more laid-back? Relax and enjoy the atmosphere while coloring a spooky adult coloring sheet. Whether you’re mingling over your favorite subgenre or teaming up for a game, there’s something here for every kind of fan.

Whether you love slashers, supernatural tales, or psychological thrillers, Fright Night is a celebration of all things eerie, twisted, and unforgettable, shared with a community that gets it.
