Along with the fun events, the Penn Theater is showing some Halloween movies. Ghostbusters will be showing on October 24, and Gremlins will be showing on October 10. Those are just some of the Halloween movies that will be at the Penn.

DTP also has a variety of scarecrows that companies create to advertise their company or business. Lots of scarecrows are creative, spooky and fun to look at with friends and family.
