Hold your breath: Halloweenapalooza returns to Ottumwa on Oct. 11 and 12. Iowa’s only horror film festival draws fans from across the Midwest and beyond. Each year, filmmakers from around the world submit their spooky entries.

Halloweenapalooza also features a costume contest, a zombie walk and live (or living dead) music to accompany the films. Halloween lovers will also have the opportunity to buy Halloween souvenirs from various vendors. A few stars from various horror movies will also be on hand to meet fans, sign autographs and discuss independent filmmaking. Kids can tag along, too, and make crafts and decorations to take home.
