Please stop writing in asking for tickets to Friday the 13th. ChicagoHorror.com was given a set number to give away last week via a 3rd party promoter; those tickets went very fast, first come, first served, and are long gone. We don’t have more, we don’t have any to sell, and no, we’re not holding out on you – there are no tickets to be had from us at this point.

HAUTE HORROR! at the Gene Siskel Film Center

  • Posted : February 1st, 2009
  • Comments: 0

The Gene Siskel Film Center is proud to present HAUTE HORROR! the week of February 6 – 12. The film center will be showing two horror films FEAR(S) OF THE DARK and LET THE RIGHT ONE IN. 

Dazzling animated anthology FEAR(S) OF THE DARK, presented in beautifully austere black-and-white, plumbs the dark recesses of the mind—cerebral, sexual, and primal. LET THE RIGHT ONE IN centers on 12-year-old loner Oskar who becomes attracted and attached to the new girl next door and learns she is quite different from other kids. LET THE RIGHT ONE IN is an adaptation of John Ajvide Lindqvist’s international bestseller and is uniquely Swedish, beautiful, and quietly terrifying.

Sunday (2/8) at 5:15 pm;
Monday (2/9) at 6:15 pm;

RICHMOND, VA — The father of the “mystery novel,” and one of America’s most extraordinary poets and fiction writers was immortalized on postage today when the U.S. Postal Service celebrated the 200th anniversary of the birth of Edgar Allan Poe.
