Description: "Come join The Addams Family for the most hilarious scarefest of this season or any other! When long-lost Uncle Fester (Christopher Lloyd) reappears after twenty-five years in the Bermuda Triangle, Gomez (Raul Julia) and Morticia (Anjelica Huston) plan a celebration to wake the dead. But Wednesday (Christina Ricci) barely has time to warm up her electric chair before Thing points out Fester's uncommonly "normal" behavior. Could this Fester be a fake, part of an evil scheme to raid the Addams fortune?" (Paramount Pictures) In the event of rain, the screening will be moved indoors to the East Room of the Museum. All attendees are required to practice social distancing, and wear a mask when in close proximity to others or entering the building at Arch Street Meeting House.
