The Abilene community is invited to a festive evening at Moody Coliseum on July 15, featuring a free showing of "The Grinch".

IHOP isn't acting Grinch-like with its kids eat free promotion. Through Dec. 31 from 4 to 10 p.m., kids 12 and under receive a free entrée from the kids menu with each purchase of an adult entrée.

The chain announced a kids eat free deal and a special holiday menu inspired by Illumination Entertainment's and Universal Pictures' new film, "Dr. Seuss' The Grinch," which debuts in theaters Nov. 9.
