Following a relocation to GRUB at Red Bank, the Chapeltown Picture House is set to reopen on Friday 30th October with a horror program for Halloween weekend.
The selection consists of horror classics and cult favourites: Mandy, The Living Dead at the
Manchester Morgue, The Thing, and Scream.
Situated in the top floor of GRUB, the new Chapeltown Picture House features a space
that can be adapted for film screenings, video game sessions, live podcast recordings,
comedy shows, talks, and more.
The Picture House is positioned to become the home for all things nerdy in Manchester. The 4K projector is powered by a top-of-the-line gaming PC with an Nvidia RTX 3080 graphics card at its heart, ensuring the ultimate gaming experience on the big screen or in VR.
“We’re really excited to bring people together at the cinema says but in a safe way, of course! Going to the cinema always helps me escape reality for 90 minutes — and I know we can provide that for cinemagoers in a safe environment.”
(Tobias Soar, Picture House Manager)
