The Adele H. Stamp Student Union will become an umpteen-ring circus tomorrow for its 38th annual All Niter. It’s everything the Stamp has to offer, for free, jammed into one night. 

The thousands of guests—who can expect crowds to grow throughout the evening—will find live entertainment, movies, free food, games and giveaways. Watch a magic show, navigate an escape room, or play billiards, bowl or bounce in an inflatable house. 

Halloween-themed events include a haunted photo booth, trick-or-treating, trick-or-trivia and a showing of the 1996 movie “Scream.” 

But those are all dessert. Here are the main entrees at this one-night feast:
