Can’t wait to get spooked, Agatha Christie style? You’re in luck. Select IMAX and Alamo Drafthouse locations will screen A Haunting in Venice up to a week early.

Based on Christie’s novel Hallowe’en Party, the film sees the return of celebrated sleuth Hercule Poirot (Kenneth Branagh). Now retired and living in self-imposed exile in the world’s most glamorous city, Poirot reluctantly attends a séance at a decaying, haunted palazzo. When one of the guests is murdered, the detective is thrust into a sinister world of shadows and secrets. 

A Haunting in Venice officially premieres in theaters September 15. However, you may have the opportunity to catch the film early. Check out details for the advance screenings hosted by IMAX and Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas below.
