Lights Out: Abandoned American Drive-Ins
| January 30, 2019
Pymatuning Lake Drive-In
When this Ohio movie theater first opened in 1950, it was called the Shane Drive-In, and it could accommodate up to 500 cars at a time. In 1980, well after most drive-ins had already closed, this theater got a makeover and a new name, becoming the Pymatuning Lake Drive-In.
There were still regular movie screenings happening here every summer until 2015, when it unfortunately closed just after undergoing a brand new, patriotic paint job. Now, the red, white, and blue screen remains, but there are no movies being shown anymore. It functions as a location for a weekly neighborhood flea market.
