Atlanta Horror Society Meetups – Not Just a Movie Night Join the Atlanta Horror Society on Wednesday, June 25 at 8:00 PM for a FREE night of horror discussion, trivia, and filmmaking fun (optional donations welcome). This month we're featuring local filmmaker James Mathis and his horror short The Offering, followed by a deep dive into the 1987 cult classic The Gate. Enjoy behind-the-scenes discussion, audience participation, horror trivia, prizes, and great company.
This meetup also marks the beginning of our annual AHS Trivia Championship, where attendees can earn points throughout the year for a chance to be crowned our 2026 Horror Trivia Champion. Whether you're a filmmaker, horror fan, or just looking to meet fellow genre lovers, come join us for a killer night of horror! Join the Atlanta Horror Society for a FREE event (with optional donations) and experience horror like never before!
We’re now accepting optional donations online and at the door, with all proceeds going directly to our featured filmmaker to help fund their next project. Each month, we’re spotlighting our Local Horror Filmmaker of the Month, giving them the chance to screen their work and share their vision with our community. Let’s lift up Atlanta horror together!
Each meetup also features a chosen film topic, where we pick a favorite horror film or director and dive deep into their work. You’ll get to network with other fans, commentate on the director’s style, practical effects, and storytelling choices, and share your own insights with the group. It’s a chance to geek out over the horror classics, discover hidden gems, and connect with people who are just as obsessed with horror as you are.
AHS meetups are more than just a screening, they’re a full-on fan experience. Expect live commentary, audience Q&A, horror trivia and games with prizes, behind-the-scenes deep dives, plus music and drinks to keep the vibes going. It’s a room full of horror lovers geeking out together, celebrating cult classics, practical effects, and the creative minds behind Atlanta horror. If you love filmmaking talk, trivia, and meeting fans who get it… come hang with us. It’s gonna be a killer night.
