Warner Drive-in
Franklin, WV
The Warner Drive-in opened in 1953 and is still operating. [map]

Sunset Drive-in
Shinnston, WV
The Sunset Drive-in opened in 1947 and is still in operation. There is a residence built into the screen tower. The Ellis Restaurant next door is owned by the same family and the businesses share the same sign. For more, see this website. [map]

Skyline Drive-in
Clarksburg, WV
Jungle Drive-in
Parkersburg, WV
I believe the Skyline Drive-in was built around 1950 and closed around 1985. The arrow has been rebuilt and the sign advertises for the A-1 Exterminating Co. [map]

The Jungle Drive-in opened in 1953. Originally, there was a giant ape at the entrance and workers dressed in jungle-style outfits. The theatre closed around 2013. For more, see this website. [map]
