Those cinephiles that loved last year’s BlumFest will be excited about this news! As first reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the second annual Halloween-tied event from Blumhouse Studios will take place on Oct. 1. As with the first edition, this year’s BlumFest will be virtual.
Studio founder Jason Blum revealed the news on YouTube, dressing up as a Sith Lord on May 4th to make the announcement. Blum said,
“Hello, I’m Jason Blum, Star Wars fans love May 4th and Blumhouse fans love October and Halloween. Join us October 1st for the second annual Blumfest, your favorite Blumhouse movies, TV shows and the actors and directors who make them. See you there!”
Last year’s BlumFest, held on Oct. 30, featured panels on Blumhouse films such as Freaky, The Craft: Legacy and Halloween Kills.
