I don’t know about you, but October happens to be my favorite month. It’s when all the ghouls, ghosts, and geeks come out!
October is the month for watching scary movies, touring haunted houses and attending some electrifying events at Seattle’s Startup Week! It’ll be scary… how much you’ll learn! Mmmwhahahahaha! No seriously, check out all the awesome upcoming events and happenings during Seattle’s Startup Week (Oct. 18-25).
Meanwhile we’ll continue to keep you posted on the coolest and nerdiest things on the GeekWire Calendar.
Ghostbusters and Evil Dead @ Central Cinema: We love Central Cinema! They curate some great films every month and for October, they’ve got some very scary classics lined up. Be sure to catch these two back to back (they’re also playing Pet Sematary and The Shinning together later in the month, yikes!).
When: Friday, October 4th – Wednesday, October 9th. 7pm & 9:30pm.

When: Saturday, October 5th – Sunday, October 6th. All day.
The Enematic Cinematic: Hack-O-Lantern: Enjoy gory, raunchy, satanic 80’s films? How about people making fun of said movie while drinking beers? If you’re the kind of weirdo who answered “yes” then you’ll want to come to TEC’s showing of Hack-O-Lantern and stay for the live podcast recording. Creeps abound!
When: Tuesday, October 8th. 8pm.
Scarecrow Video Saturday Screenings: All October long, Scarecrow Video will be screening some fantastically freaky feature films in their screening room. Here’s a video showcasing the upcoming films.
