Immediately following the movie, tours/ghost hunting will commence around the theater that opened in August 1936 and has experienced three fires. Experts in the field of the supernatural will be on hand to provide guidance and advice, so bring your ghost-hunting gear. The tour is limited to 30 people. $25 pp (tour tickets must be purchased in advance and will go on sale beginning October 1) Go to www.statecinemanewton.com to purchase your ticket!
