Halloween Movies & Shows
Welcome to Hellingham, where everyone is as silly as they are suspect! Improvisers will take inspiration from the audience to create their character, drawing from the Bowl of Fate to find out if they will be witness, kill, or be killed. Only the improviser knows their character's fate, until it is revealed on stage!
If it bleeds it will lead the competition at this horror filled film festival! For over ten years, Bleedingham has been supporting those who love to make and watch horror movies here in the Pacific Northwest. Submit your own spooky short to have it reviewed by a judging panel or just join in for the scares at several activities, including the annual awards ceremony to view the top selected films.
The festival is screened at Pickford Film Center.
Haunted Houses
In Ferndale, Whatcom Frightmare Haunted House will be presenting a range of scares for all ages.
Earlier in evening, the "lighter scare" will be perfect for younger kids. Those brave enough for a "full scare" should stop by later at night when the haunted house will be dark and ready to frighten.
The event is wheelchair accessible.
"When the bell rings and the lights go out, evil comes out to play..."
Relive the horror of high school at this haunted house, located at the NW Washington Fair Grounds in Lynden, WA. Hours are 7-10 p.m.
Tickets are sold at the door. If at 9 p.m. the line exceeds a two hour wait, ticket sales will stop.
