Church night? Kids' ballgames? Working late? Why not make it a 𝗖𝗨𝗟𝗩𝗘𝗥'𝗦 night?

The Horror at the Ohio Film Festival crew will be at our local Culver's helping out TONIGHT from 5-8pm, delivering food and promoting our event. A percentage of all sales during that time will be donated to this year's festival. So the busier it is, the better for HATO!

We know you don't feel like cooking, so come on by Culver's and get a delicious dinner and support the coolest festival around at the same time! 🍔🍟👻
