If you’re a Munsters fan, you may want to head over to your nearest drive-in: Butch Patrick, best known for playing Eddie Munster in the classic television series, is embarking on a “Summer Scream Series” tour to connect with fans. At each stop, Patrick will screen the 1966 classic Munster Go Home; fans will also have the opportunity to meet Patrick for autographs and photo ops, see Munsters memorabilia like the “Dragula” coffin car and Eddie’s chopper, and check out a bunch of cool Munsters merchandise.

The spooktacular tour began earlier this month in Texas at the Corvette Car Show, and is now headed to Walnutport, PA, for a Munsters Go Home screening today at Becky’s Drive-In. He will also be visiting Amey’s Garage and Scoopendorf’s Ice Cream in the area.
