Hey there, everybody! Another movie night is upon us, and we thought it would be fun to open this Halloween season w/ a spooky Victorian murder mystery! Join us!
Batman: Gotham by Gaslight (2018): In an age of mystery and superstition, our favorite frightening bat-creature-of-the-night begins his war on crime in an alternative Victorian Age Gotham City, investigating a series of gruesome murders committed by the notorious night stalker, Jack the Ripper! Will Batman help catch the criminal lurking the shadows or will people be just as afraid of him? Gotta tune in to find out—Hope to see you here!
If you’re not free on 10/2, you can always join us for a book discussion after the WAL!
PLEASE NOTE:
You’ll need your own access to the movie. It’s available on HBOMax right HERE.
Be ready to hit PLAY at the moment of truth and if you get lost, we got you—just ask and we’ll get you on track.
Rated: R, Runtime: 78min
Contact @Razzzcat or @Mae below if you have any questions.
Discussion: Begins (after the WAL) on 10/3, and will remain open all month long!

Also in our Library, if you’re looking for more Victorian-era vibes this Halloween season:
I really enjoy this movie, it has a good murder mystery story of who Jack The Ripper is. I would’ve love to see more of ElseWorlds stories being made into a animated movie.
Welcome back to the community @ArkhamKnight79! Glad to hear you enjoyed the movie - please don’t hesitate to let the moderator team know if you need anything!
My brother has one of the Panda King Wookiee books, and I’ve seen a few of the Gotham documentaries on Batfeed. They’re fun, like a companion piece to the movie.
Seconded! I would love to see more of those stories made into movies too.
