The Chills in the Chapel film festival has authentic atmosphere in droves thanks to its location within James Cubbitt's spookily gothic Union Chapel in Islington. The line-up draws on history too with the screening of four stone-cold classic horror flicks. Silent vampire movie Nosferatu (1922) plays on Tuesday; David Lynch's taboo-breaking The Elephant Man (1980) follows on Wednesday; and classic supernatural thriller Dead of Night (1945) should scare Thursday's crowds half to death. Halloween itself is reserved for timeless favourite Dracula (1958), with the inimitable Christopher Lee bringing the festival to a bloodthirsty and elegant close.
