Last year, we reported on a horror movie exhibition at the Oscars Museum fittingly dubbed “the Horror Show.” With months before launch, the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures has pulled back the curtain on what to expect. For those hoping to see some scary movies during this time, there’ll be a screening of Carrie on November 19 to celebrate its 50th birthday that month. Sissy Spacek, who played Carrie in the film, will attend. Other public screenings include The Craft on Halloween night, the US premiere of 1958’s Horror of Dracula in 4K during the 2026 Monster Mash on October 24, and John Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness on September 26. The Horror Show is split into six themed hubs based on the major subgenres Science, Religion, Ghost, Slasher, Psychological, and Gothic. Each subgenre is represented by classics like Blade and The Thing, plus more recent fare like Sinners and the Terrifier movies. Chambers also house original props, costumes, and production materials from iconic films, plus interactive displays delving into the horror genre’s appeal with audiences. To further sell how legit this is, the Academy Museum revealed the exhibit’s advisory board include Longlegs director Osgood Perkins, Robert Eggers mainstay Willem Dafoe, author/filmmaker Tananarive Due, prosthetic makeup artist Howard Berger (The Vampire Lestat), and film scholar Angela Marie Smith. In a statement, Perkins called horror “crucial to culture, cinema, and our evolving understanding of what it means to be alive on earth.”
