Just like your favorite venue ghost, we’re back to bring you spine-chilling stories, spooky event info, and harrowing Halloween haunts to make all your nightmares come true! 🦇 For this year’s frightful feature, we learn all about Paramount Theatre in Austin, which in addition to being haunted also presents an annual horror film series – Panic at the Paramount! 🎬 Our (g)hosts are joined by Javier Ramirez, Director of Marketing at Paramount & State Theatres and Moontower Comedy Festival (largest annual comedy festival in North America). Javier acts as our guide through an overview of both theatres before we dive into their horror film series. We learn about how Panic at the Paramount was created, their thought process with ticket pricing and branding around the events, and how various actors and legendary film director Robert Rodríguez have gotten involved in presenting films for the series. We then learn about the 110 year old Paramount Theatre’s three resident ghosts, which have been seen around the venue, photographed disappearing into the seats, and even… smelled?! 👻 Enjoy this fun annual Halloween episode to get you in the mood for today’s holiday.
