Whether you’re taking a class at the relaunched Portland Underground Grad School or clearing space in your closet to donate to one of the city’s homegrown nonprofits, October is all about leaning into the PNW’s fall rhythms. City Cast Portland has handpicked the best of the month’s food, entertainment, and community happenings to help you narrow down your plans for this month — or even to simply inspire a cozy night in with an underground horror flick, curated by a local publication.

Plus, a bonus suggestion from our episode archive: Portland’s Best Horror Celebrities, Scary Films, and Spine-Tingling Events.

If you're new here, welcome! We’ve put together a starter pack for you, with episodes and articles to welcome you to the City Cast Portland community.
