Sometimes Tuesday can just feel like another Monday, but not if you visit Griggs Park in October.

The popular park will host “Movies in the Park” again this year, featuring family-friendly Halloween-themed movies every Tuesday. These nights are free with popcorn included plus dog-friendly. The only thing you need to bring is lawn chairs and extra blankets.

Here’s this year’s lineup.

  • Tuesday, Oct. 1 | “Practical Magic”
  • Tuesday, Oct. 8 | “Halloween Town”
  • Tuesday, Oct. 15 | “Beautiful Creatures”
  • Tuesday, Oct. 22 | “Hocus Pocus”

The event is hosted by Uptown Dallas, Inc., who also plans other fun local events worth checking out.
