The 2022 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with the South Carolina ETV film, Hurricane Hugo: Storm of the Century.

Hurricane Hugo made landfall north of Charleston sometime around midnight Sept. 22, 1989. A category 4 storm, Hugo caused significant damage along the South Carolina coast. The Grand Strand saw 12-foot high walls of water and almost every business along the coast had damage or was destroyed, including three piers in Myrtle Beach. It’s estimated that at the time, Hugo caused around $7 billion worth of damage to the area. This film explores the impact of Hugo five years after it hit South Carolina.

The film is free to the public and will be shown at 1 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 21, at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street in Conway.

The Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2022. For a full list of films, visit our website.
