The original Pet Sematary to be shown at the site of the pet cemetery

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Kenny Caperton's On Set Cinema series continues to set up screenings of popular films at interesting locations from the film being shown. Previous events include THE PROWLER at The Inn of Cape May, THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL at the actual house, SCREAM at Stu's house, I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER at both the department store and the community theatre, HALLOWEEN 1978 at the Myers house, THE SHINING at the Overlook / Timberline Lodge, and JASON LIVES: FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI at the camp. Later this month, On Set Cinema will be showing the original THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE at the house from the film, which has been moved and turned into the Grand Central Cafe.

And later this year, On Set Cinema will be showing the 1989 Stephen King adaptation PET SEMATARY at the spot where the pet cemetery (or pet sematary, as the sign said) was set up for the film.

Will you come over and play with us? First, we play with Jud. Then mommy came. We had an awful good time… now we want to play with you! 

Join ON SET CINEMA on Saturday, September 19th for a very special screening of the original Pet Sematary at the actual Pet Sematary filming location in Ellsworth, Maine! We will be watching the film outside, exactly where the infamous “Pet Sematary” sign and graveyard once stood. 

Maine is such a beautiful state – make a weekend trip out of it and visit Acadia National Park only 20 minutes away or check out Stephen King’s house in Bangor only 40 minutes north. We encourage everyone to stay all night at The Colonial Inn, which is located directly by the event location – ticket holders will be emailed a 15% off discount code for September 19th! 

And we don’t recommend bringing your dead animals – losing a pet can be devastating, but just remember… sometimes, dead is better.
