Watch a Horror Classic at the Capitol Theatre Every Tuesday This October

Fort Edmonton Park's Capitol Theatre is turning its Tuesdays over to horror this month. Every week in October, the 1920s-style movie house is screening a different scary-movie staple, from slasher favourites to the slow-burn dread of the late '60s. Doors open a 6:30, film starts at 7:30 - and it’s first come, first served for seats. Get there early to get the best seats.
