The Rocky Horror Picture Show at The Grand Opera House 

What says Halloween more than throwing toilet paper in the air (along with rice and various other items) during a screening of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”? Attendees will have that seasonal opportunity during The Grand’s yearly showing of the film. Be aware though, that although participants are encouraged to come costumed, no outside props will be allowed due to the historic nature of the theater. Never fear though, The Grand will have a bag of official props for sale at the theater. 

9 p.m.; $5 tickets available at tixr.com; 651 Mulberry St., 31201; (478) 301-5470; thegrandmacon.com
