🎃🎬 THIRD TIME’S THE CHARM, PIKEVILLE! 🎬🎃

Mother Nature may have won the first two Saturdays of October, but we’re ready to FINALLY get Pikeville Pictures in the Park on the big screen! 🙌

We may see a little rain Saturday morning, but the forecast is looking much better by evening — so we’re planning to fire up the projector, pop the popcorn, and welcome everyone back to Dee’s Memorial Park for our FIRST movie night of the month!

And after making you wait this long, we figured one movie just wouldn’t cut it. 😎

🐾 7:30 PM — SCOOBY-DOO!
🧙‍♀️ 9:00 PM — HOCUS POCUS!

🎟️ Admission is completely FREE!
🍿 Concessions available for purchase
🪑 Bring your chairs & blankets
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Bring the whole family
📍 Dee’s Memorial Park | Pikeville, NC

We’ve battled rain, changed schedules, shuffled movies, and probably checked the weather app more times than any reasonable person should. 😂 But Saturday night, we’re ready to make it happen!

Come early, grab your spot, pick up some snacks, and settle in for TWO Halloween favorites under the stars.

After two weekends of cancellations, Pikeville — WE’VE GOT SOME MOVIES TO WATCH! 🎃🍿👻

Share this post and help us pack the park!

See you for Halloween!

🎃🚔 WELL, WELL, WELL… LOOK WHO DECIDED TO SHOW UP. HELLO, OCTOBER! 👻🍂

The temperatures are supposed to be dropping, the pumpkins are appearing on porches, and somewhere out there somebody has already watched Hocus Pocus three times. 😂

That can only mean one thing…

🎃 LET THE SPOOKY SEASON BEGIN! 👻🚔

10/10/2026

🌧️🎬 WELL… MOTHER NATURE WINS ROUND TWO 🎬🌧️

We tried. We really did. 😂

Last week, Mother Nature rained out Monsters Inc. So we regrouped, rescheduled, and said, “Fine… we’ll make it a DOUBLE FEATURE!”

Apparently, Mother Nature took that personally. 😑☔

With rain in the forecast and the weather simply refusing to cooperate, we’ve made the decision to CANCEL TONIGHT’S PIKEVILLE PICTURES IN THE PARK.

Current standings:

🌧️ Mother Nature — 2
🎬 Pikeville — 0

BUT SHE HASN’T WON THE SERIES YET. 😎🍿

We promised you these movies, and we’re going to show these movies! So if Mother Nature wants to keep taking away Saturdays, we’re just going to start STACKING MOVIES.

🎃 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17 — DOUBLE FEATURE
👹 Monsters Inc. — 7:30 PM
🧙‍♀️ Hocus Pocus — 9:00 PM

👻 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24 — DOUBLE FEATURE
🐾 Scooby-Doo — 7:30 PM
👻 Casper — 9:00 PM

📍 Dee’s Memorial Park — Pikeville

That’s right. TWO Saturdays. FOUR movies. 🍿🎥

At this rate, if it rains again, by Halloween we may be starting movies at 2:00 in the afternoon and serving breakfast by the time the credits roll. 😂

So Mother Nature, enjoy your victory today.

We’ll see you again next Saturday. 😏

And Pikeville… keep those lawn chairs and blankets handy because we are apparently going to finish this October movie series ONE WAY OR ANOTHER! 😂🎬🍿

Weather permitting… because apparently we have to say that now.🤦‍♂️☔

10/10/2026

UPDATE: We had to cancel .... again

🎬🌧️ PIKEVILLE PICTURES IN THE PARK vs. MOTHER NATURE — ROUND TWO! 🌧️🎬

Okay, Mother Nature… we get it. You apparently have some very strong opinions about our October movie schedule. 😂

Last Saturday, you brought the rain and washed out Monsters Inc. So we did what any reasonable people would do — moved it to THIS Saturday and made it a DOUBLE FEATURE with Scooby-Doo! 🍿🎥

Problem solved, right?

WRONG. 🤦‍♂️

Now we’re looking at an 80% chance of rain with a hurricane making its way toward the coast to our south.

At this point, we’re beginning to think Mother Nature just doesn’t like outdoor movies. 😂

BUT… we aren’t throwing in the towel yet!

🎬 OUR INTENTION IS STILL TO SHOW BOTH MOVIES TOMORROW!

📅 Saturday, October 10
📍 Dee’s Memorial Park
👹 Monsters Inc. — 7:30 PM
🐾 Scooby-Doo — 9:00 PM

⚠️ WEATHER UPDATE: We will watch the forecast overnight and make the FINAL CALL AT NOON TOMORROW.

And here’s one promise we CAN make:

YOU. WILL. SEE. THESE. MOVIES. 😂

If Mother Nature keeps messing with us, we’ll start stacking double features every Saturday until we’re showing movies from supper until breakfast. 🤣🍿

We have Saturdays left in October, a projector, a movie screen, and apparently a developing personal rivalry with the weather.

Challenge accepted, Mother Nature. 😎🎬

Stay tuned to our page tomorrow at NOON for the official decision.

Until then… everybody cross your fingers, say a little prayer, and maybe politely ask Mother Nature to GO RAIN ON SOMEBODY ELSE’S PARADE. 😂☔

10/03/2026

Mother Nature just doesn't want to cooperate with tonight’s movie.

Plenty of rain in the forecast ☔️ and in the best interest of keeping you all dry and the popcorn from being soggy we are unfortunately cancelling the showing for tonight 😞

But don’t fret, we aren’t going to leave you Monsters Inc fans out to dry … we are inviting Mike & Sulley back next week for a double feature show with Scooby & Shaggy and the rest of the Mystery Gang

See you all next Saturday, October 10th!
