Re-enact the famous Run Out Scene in the movie The Blob,

Phoenixville’s Bridge Street! Before the Run Out, you’ll experience a live
Stage Show hosted by Aurora Gorealis of Baltimore’s Shocktail Hour featuring
live music by Beach Creeper. Enter your sci-fi/horror short film into the 2022
Shorty’s Short Film Contest, which will be judged during the stage show. Or, vie
for the coveted Mx. Blobfest Universe title. (Ms. Blobfest 2021 won’t give up
her cosmic crown without a fight so . . . best of luck?) After you’ve screamed
your lungs out and escaped the Blob, dance the night away from 9-midnight at
the Blob Ball. Hosted by Phoenixville’s Lulu Boutique & Gifterie, the Blob
Ball is a costumed, retro dance party featuring Dibbs and the Detonators. Get
