Sick of pumpkin spice lattes and boring costume parties? Wish your spooky season came with a little more ‘boo’ and a lot more ‘bing-ghosts’? This Halloween, The Garden Cinema are once again turning up the jump scares with another night of our highly cinematic Franken-BINGO.

Expect eerie movie clips, ghoulishly good cocktails, and plenty of tricks, treats, and prizes lurking in the shadows. Dressing up is also highly encouraged, as there will be a bonus prize for the best costume of the night!

So grab your broomsticks, dust off your masks, and get ready for a frightfully fun night you won’t forget…

Prizes up for grabs will include cinema vouchers, drinks, and a range of fantastic donations from local businesses, including:

• Vouchers from one of the world’s oldest and leading independent bookshops specialising in Esoterica, Watkins Books
• Deliciously sweet & salty (trick or) treats by Lakrids by Bülow, who are on a mission to make the whole world fall in love with liquorice
• A selection of blu-rays including The Hourglass Sanitorium, Vampire’s Kiss and Two Boxes: Televised Terror in Franco’s Spain, donated by the arthouse icons of Radiance Films
• A gift set of beers by our favourite Bristol-based Lost & Grounded Brewers
• A handmade piece by our in-house spooky ceramicist Magdalene Lepri

More prizes to be announced, so keep a bloodshot eye on this page!

Tickets for the event are £10 each, and members can book up to 2 tickets, which means you’re welcome to bring a friend or foe. Due to the nature of the selected video clips from a range of frightening films, the event will be 18+.

Doors will open from 19:30 to enjoy a terrifying tipple or two, with the bingo starting at 20:00. We expect to finish around 23:00, after which there will be a bit more time to stick around for drinks.
