It’s almost the most spook-tacular time of the year again.

And to celebrate, Omniplex Cinemas have announced the schedule for their October series of #BringItBack – which will see two Hallowe’en classics hit the big screen once again.

Beginning on Friday October 11, it’s time to answer one of life’s biggest questions – Who you gonna call?

35 years after it was released, Omniplex Cinemas are bringing the dream team of Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray back on the big screen for one week only

Ghostbusters fans can see the team of scientists save New York from complete destruction once more.

Next up in the October season is the first big screen return to Omniplex of Hocus Pocus  -and it will definitely put a spell on cinemas fans.

For those living under a rock, Hocus Pocus tells the story of a curious 17 year old Max who struggles to fit into spooky Salem before awakening a trio of diabolical witches – the Sanderson Sisters.

From Binx the cat, to Billy the zombie ex (and let’s not forget the creepy book), Hocus Pocus delights audiences young and not so young for one week only from October 25.

#BringItBack, the 2019 series, will see some of the world’s most loved movies returning to Omniplex, enhanced by the best in modern day cinema experiences – quality projection, state of the art sound technology and of course, the comfiest seats.

Tickets for Bring It Back movies are just €8 (or free for MyOmniPass holders) with online booking recommended at www.omniplex.ie.

#BringItBack is a collection of classic movies turning to the silver screen by Omniplex Cinemas. To date it has driven over 40,000 admissions across the country.

Omniplex Cinemas began testing the program in 2017 in 9 cinema locations. Due to popular demand, Omniplex have expanded to all 30 cinemas nationwide with each movie showing for just one week.

Previous movies have included; Die Hard, Home Alone, Avatar, The Shining, Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring; The Lion King and The Princess Bride.
