Teen Movie Night: Dracula VS The Mummy

Buder Library is hosting a teen movie night on Wednesday, October 28, with a double feature that pits two monster movies against each other. The lineup is Van Helsing (2004) and The Mummy (1999), played back-to-back. The whole session runs about four hours, and the two films are the main event.

It's set up as a Halloween-themed double feature for teens, and the night doesn't end when the credits roll. After watching both movies, the audience gets to decide who the ultimate Halloween monster is: Dracula or the Mummy. It's built for fans of classic adventure films, and the whole thing is open to ages 13 to 18. Popcorn and spooky drinks are served throughout the session, so you've got snacks to get you through the four-hour stretch.

If you're looking for something to do with a younger sibling or a group of friends, this is a low-stakes way to spend a Wednesday afternoon. You get two monster movies in one go, and you get to weigh in on the final verdict. It's free, and it's at Buder Library, part of the St. Louis Public Library system at 4401 Hampton Ave in St. Louis. The session starts at 3:30 PM.
