While ghosts may be scary, they can be friendly too. Casper is not only a friendly ghost, he is the featured conclusion to Summer of Spirits extravaganza. This family friendly classic is the perfect way to say goodbye to summer and to usher in the cool fall air of spooky season.

Cinematery is our annual outdoor summer film screenings. Held on the cemetery grounds, this one-of-a-kind event allows you to enjoy the ambiance of the cemetery after dark while taking in a classic film with friends and family. So pack your chairs or picnic blanket and whatever tasty treats you enjoy and plan to join us for an exclusive picnic at an atmospheric National Historic Landmark. Join us for an evening under the stars!

Feel free to bring your own beverages and food. Alcohol is permitted and will also be for sale. Keep in mind that all guests will be ID checked upon entry. We also recommend bringing your own blankets, low lying lawn chairs, etc. Please do NOT bring chairs that may obstruct the view of those behind you.

Gates open about an hour before sunset and the movie begins at sunset. (for this showing, gates open at 7:00 and the movie will begin between 8:15 and 8:30). Times are adjusted for earlier sundown times.

Reservations are required. The recommended donation is $10 per person, although you are welcome to give more.
