Plus, watch Westminster's premiere of Hollywood Graveyard's "The Graves of Edgar Allan Poe & The Women Who Haunted Him" (parental discretion is advised).
Admission is $5; kids younger than 4 are admitted free. UMB ID holders receive $1 off admission. Westminster's exclusive Poe products will be available for purchase, plus free apple cider and popcorn. For more information, call 410-706-2072 or email info@westminsterhall.org. Costumes are welcomed!
