Step into the shadows for an evening of classic horror and thought-provoking conversation! Join us at the International Museum of Surgical Science for a screening of William Castle’s 1959 cult favorite House on Haunted Hill, starring Vincent Price. Experience the eerie thrills and atmospheric suspense that helped define mid-century horror cinema.

Following the screening, stay for a live panel discussion exploring the symbolic and cultural role of skeletons in horror film—from their presence as chilling visual icons to their deeper meanings as metaphors for fear, mortality, memory, and the human condition.
