This Halloween, Channel 19 Turns Into “Channel Night Scream”
By Frank Sinatra, AAP Editor
It’s no trick. For the fourth year in a row, Pennsauken residents tuning into Channel 19 will be treated to a wide variety of horror movies, from cult favorites to extreme camp.
This Halloween, Pennsauken Television will present “Channel Night Scream,” a day-long horror movie marathon, airing several horror movies available from the public domain. Viewers can watch silent classics such as “Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde,” featuring John Barrymore; cult horror gem “The Brain That Wouldn’t Die;” and “Attack of the Giant Leeches,” a film that “sucks” on many levels. The programming culminates with George A. Romero’s zombie masterpiece, “Night of the Living Dead.”

Calling All Monsters, Princesses And Superheroes: The 4-1-1 On Trick Or Treating
The boys and ghouls of Pennsauken are excitedly counting down the days to Halloween. To keep them safe, the Township has an ordinance in place regarding the holiday.
Pennsauken has a curfew in place not just on Oct. 31, but the two days prior to Halloween. During this period, any minor under the age of 16, regardless of where they live, is not allowed out on the streets of Pennsauken after the hour of 8:00 p.m. unless they are accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. That means the person your with must be an adult who’s legally responsible for you.
As Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, Pennsauken Township suggests that trick or treating start in the afternoon; but when night begins to fall, make plans to start heading home, as the kids have to stop knocking on doors at 8:00 p.m.
Also, trick or treating is for the little ones, not adults. It’s unlawful for anyone over the age of 14 to go out trick or treating, unless you’re acting as a chaperone. And unfortunately, chaperones can’t ask for any candy or treats. They have to wait until they get home to help their kids “sort” the candy.
If someone is caught breaking the ordinance, the “trick” they’ll get can vary from just a warning to a fine up to $200. And that’s kind of scary.
Here’s wishing you a fun, safe time celebrating a uniquely American holiday.
Haunted Hay Ride Scares Up Some Fun On October 29
