The story

Lambertville Halloween Film Festival in Lambertville

The Lambertville Halloween Film Festival, known as LHFF, is a mid-October independent film festival held over a weekend at the Acme Screening Room, a nonprofit art-house cinema in downtown Lambertville, New Jersey. Established in 2022, it screens horror, thriller, and Halloween-themed independent shorts and features from filmmakers who submit their work for consideration, giving a small river-town cinema a themed annual spotlight event.

Its specific seasonal film identity makes it a useful niche row.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Unlike a large multi-venue festival, LHFF is anchored entirely in one intimate space: the Acme Screening Room, a 501(c)3 weekend art-house cinema on South Union Street that normally screens classic, independent, and documentary films on a state-of-the-art digital projection and surround sound system

02

The mystery stays covered

Turning that single-screen venue over to a themed Halloween lineup for a weekend gives the festival a boutique, community feel closer to a film club's annual showcase than a sprawling industry festival, and its timing in mid-October, just ahead of Halloween, lets it lean fully into the genre without competing with the area's larger spring and summer film festivals
