Beware the Moon: The Blair Witch Project

I'm afraid to close my eyes, I'm afraid to open them.

In October of 1994, 3 student film makers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary... A year later their footage was found.

Heather, Josh and Mike are on the hunt for Blair Witch but what they find is far more terrifying than anything they could ever have imagined. Join us for this supernatural assault on the senses in the eerie surrounds of Dudley Castle - home to its very own legend The Grey Lady.

Beware the Moon

This screening is a part of our installment of yearly film events, Beware the Moon, that turns Dudley Castle into an open air cinema for your delight and enjoyment.
