Drkrm. Gallery is hosting a special, limited-run Halloween retrospective called "Seeing Things". It is the first public viewing of this rare and unique collection of paranormal photographs. This exhibit explores the boundary between the known and the unknown. Is the image of the room with the ghostly writing the way we see ghosts, or is it the way ghosts see us? Come and explore these strangely surreal photographs and decide.

Peter M. Bracke presents and signs Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th
When Friday the 13th premiered in 1980, the film introduced moviegoers to a new kind of cinematic terror - shocking, visceral, graphic and relentless. Spawning ten popular sequels to date, the series has become the most successful horror franchise of all time, and the character of "Jason" an icon known around the world as the first name in evil. Now, uncensored and in their own words, over two hundred alumni of the series recall a quarter-century's worth of behind-the-scenes stories - the struggles, feuds, foibles, controversies and calamities.
