NEWPORT — The Miner has compiled a list of events on and around Halloween, this year Saturday, Oct. 31. Many of them are happening in Newport, including the following: * Final Destination Halloween Marathon, Tuesday, Oct. 27 Thursday, Oct. 29, The Newport Roxy: Celebrate Halloween week at The Roxy with all six “Final Destination” films on the big screen. The marathon started Tuesday, but two more nights remain of suspense, outrageous accidents and the franchise that made everyone a little more cautious around logging trucks. Two movies play each night, starting at 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Catch one film, make a night of the double feature, or join The Roxy for the rest of the marathon.
