We See Dead People and Other Cool Stuff

GT Patch has picked fun weekend events for those close to home and those bound for the Shore.

If you haven't seen the film The Sixth Sense, you didn't get to hear Haley Joel Osment (as Cole) confess to his therapist, "I see dead people." We want you to hear this creepy confession, and enjoy other free movies this weekend. Loads of venues are hosting free movies-in- the-park events and we're here to tell you where to go.

If you aren't a movie-lover, don't fret—we've picked a few events for you to enjoy, too. This weekend at the Shore, Atlantic City is the place to be and kids can enjoy a teddy-bear tea party in Cape May.

Check out our picks for the best of this weekend's events.
