It’s become an annual tradition for Blumhouse to team up with AMC Theaters for a special re-release of some classic horror films around Halloween.
The celebration known as AMC’s Blumfest is returning once again for 2024 with six films set to head back into theaters for a special one-night only screening every Wednesday starting on September 25 and running through October 30.
Here’s the lineup and the dates for AMC’s Blumfest 2024:
-
Wednesday, September 25, 2024 – Paranormal Activity – written and directed by Oren Peli

Of course, 2024 also marks the 15th anniversary of “Paranormal Activity” — the found footage classic that Blumhouse founder Jason Blum saw back before the film was actually released nationwide and he immediately wanted to serve as a distributor for the movie. That was effectively the first major release for Blumhouse Productions, which remains one of the biggest studios producing horror films today.
“This whole month is a love letter to Halloween and our fans, and we’re grateful to our partners at AMC for joining us for BlumFest, our annual October celebration of all things Blumhouse,” Blumhouse founder and CEO Jason Blum said in a statement. “I can’t believe we’re already celebrating the 15th anniversary of Paranormal Activity, because it feels like we’re just getting started.”
