Are you a movie lover with strong opinions about films? The Library wants your help to pick the Greatest Movie of All Time. Every month, you can vote for the top film in a featured genre. In December, the monthly winners will compete in a final tournament to decide Findlay’s G.O.A.T. Movie.

This month's genre is sure to scare you right out of your boots and have you dusting off the nightlight: Horror movies! From slashers to body horror, zombies to supernatural, all of your favorites are on here, but it is up to you to decide the greatest Horror movie ever. In order to vote on this month's display, visit the library before October 31st, or vote online: https://forms.gle/oNd1YzBfKGUQ77yQA

The votes are in and our winner for the Best Mystery film is the fan-favorite 1985 film, Clue, with 11 votes! This month had a wide spread of the votes, with almost every movie getting at least one vote. Knives Out received the second-place spot (perhaps a new classic in the genre?), and the Hitchcock film, Rear Window, received third-place. If you want your movie to win next time, make sure to come by the library before October 31st to get your vote in for this month's display: Horror!
