The Addams’, who as we know are creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky, live in a neighborhood that is being turned into a planned community. A ‘reality-tv host’ tries to get rid of the altogether ooky family.

You can plan to join the fun on Saturday, October 29, at Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park located at 600 N. Ashley Drive in Tampa. The movie begins at 7 p.m. It’s free for the family. There will be food trucks and concessions, though they encourage you to bring blankets, lawn chairs and picnic baskets.

Tampa Theatre 2022 Halloween Movie Series

Tampa Theatre is raising their Halloween movie game in October. They’ll be showing some spooky films and other presentations in one of the most haunted locations.

The series begins October 14 and continues through Halloween. Classic Halloween films and live (or undead) events will fill the haunted theater each night.

Here is the eerie schedule for “A Nightmare on Franklin Street.”

  • Friday, Oct. 14 - Hocus Pocus (1993) - 7:30 p.m.

    If you’re unfamiliar with this relatively new classic, it’s about a teen battling with three witches who return after being executed in the 17th century. Bette Midler stars along with Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy.

  • Friday, Oct. 14 - Suspiria (1977) - 10:30 p.m.

    For the fan of the horror genre, this 1977 classic is a special film. The original movie was produced with vibrant colors that seemingly leap off the screen. This 4K restoration gives the most amazingly clean image that will show off details you may never have noticed before.

  • Saturday, Oct. 15 - The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) - 7:30 p.m. and 11:55 p.m.

    If you’ve seen ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’ before, there’s nothing you don’t already know. If you haven’t, there’s nothing we can tell you that will truly describe this unique theatrical experience. ‘Rocky Horror’ features the musical skills of Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Meat Loaf, Barry Bostwick and the rest of the aliens. There will be a live cast along with the film. Guests can bring their own props (leave the hot dogs, rice and water guns at home.. the Tampa Theatre doesn’t need to clean that up.)

  • Sunday, October 16 - Friday the 13th (1980) - 2:00 p.m.

  • Sunday, October 16 - Psycho (1960) - 5:30 p.m.

    It’s Alfred Hitchcock’s unique masterpiece. We’re not going to give anything away. Follow the film closely because it’s a piece of movie history. Anthony Perkins and Janet Leigh starred in the movie. This is the first of two movies on “Scream Queen Night”

  • Sunday, October 16 - X (2022) - 8:30 p.m.

    Well, the title is short. “X”. More importantly, ‘X’ features Tampa native Brittany Snow. This is the second of two movies on “Scream Queen Night”.

    The trailer will show that it is not family friendly, nor is it safe for work.

  • Monday, October 17 - The House with a Clock in Its Walls (2018) - 2:00 p.m.

    It worked with pets, so why stop there? (Wait… it didn’t really work so well on pets, did it?). Yes, it’s Stephen King’s masterpiece. Well, one of them…
