Freddy’s just around the corner, and he’s coming for you!
This October 8-10, Exhumed Films and the Mahoning Drive-In Theater present FREDDY FEST 3. Three nights of hideous horror to haunt your dreams! Each night begins with a Freddy flick, then we go beyond Elm Street to feature films that either ripped off the NOES franchise or were the result of its success.
Star RODNEY EASTMAN will be in attendance Saturday meeting fans, FREDDY FEST event merch, raffles and much more so whatever you do, DON’T FALL ASLEEP!
