Get ready to shake your bones and howl at the moon, Canton! The Monster Mash is creeping up on us, and it will be a graveyard smash. On October 12, 2024, from 7:30 PM to 10:30 PM, the Village Theater at Cherry Hill will transform into a haunted haven for adults looking to celebrate Halloween in style.
A Spooktacular Soiree
This Fall 2024 isn’t your average Halloween party – it’s a full-blown extravaganza for the 21+ crowd. Leave the kids at home and dust off your most creative costume because you won’t want to miss this ghoulishly good time. The Monster Mash is a Canton community favorite, and for good reason. It’s the perfect blend of tricks and treats for grown-ups who still love the magic of Halloween.
Costume Contest: Dress to Impress (or Distress)
One of the highlights of the evening is the costume contest. Whether you plan to go as a classic monster, a pop culture icon, or something off-the-wall, now’s your chance to shine. Will you be the belle of the ball or the beast of the bash?
Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure – the competition will be fierce. So start planning your outfit now because you never know what prizes might lurk in the shadows for the best-dressed ghouls and boys.
Games Galore
What’s a party without some games? The Monster Mash has you covered with spooky shenanigans to keep you entertained all night. While the exact games haven’t been revealed (where’s the fun in spoiling the surprise?), you can bet they’ll be Halloween-themed and hilariously fun.
Who knows? You might find yourself bobbing for apples, playing a twisted version of musical chairs, or trying to pin the tail on the werewolf.
Raise Your Spirits at the Cash Bar
No need to bring your potions and elixirs – the Monster Mash will have a fully stocked cash bar to keep your spirits high. You’ll find something to wet your whistle, whether you prefer a witch’s brew, a vampire’s blood, or a good old-fashioned beer.
Remember to drink responsibly – nobody wants to see Dracula stumbling around like he’s had too many Bloody Marys.
Dance the Night Away With Atomic Radio
What’s a Monster Mash without some monstrous tunes? Get ready to boogie down to the sounds of Atomic Radio, a live band covering top 40 hits and Halloween favorites all night long. From “Thriller” to “The Time Warp,” you’ll be grooving in your grave (or on the dance floor) to a mix of spooky classics and modern hits.
Don’t be surprised if you find yourself doing the zombie shuffle or the skeleton shake before the night is through.
Location, Location, Location

Located at 50400 Cherry Hill Road in Canton, MI 48187, this venue will be decked out in its Halloween best for the occasion.
