By Tilly O'Brien 20th Oct 2026
Kingston Museum and the Kingston International Film Festival have collaborated to bring the museum's first ever "Movies at the Museum".
The event will run in Kingston Museum's Art Gallery on Thursday, 29 October and screen three different films. These include:
- Hocus Pocus (PG) at 3.30pm with doors opening at 3pm.
- Shaun of the Dead (18+) at 7pm with doors opening at 6pm.
- Scream (18+) at 9.30pm with doors opening at 9pm.
The event description says: "Get ready for an evening and night of spooks and thrills. Buy a ticket to see a single film or buy one of our multi movie packages and get a free drink (or two) and popcorn.
"During Hocus Pocus there will be a prize for the best dressed and free Halloween goody bags for children. There will be refreshments available to buy.
"Celebrating Kingston's important place in the history of film, and our collection of Eadweard Muybridge work, we are bringing movies back to the Museum for our Halloween special...."
Ticket prices for the films vary, but those wishing to purchase a package to see all three screenings must be aged 18 and over.
Tickets can be bought here.
