A quick and fun read about a group of boys who get transported all over the world and throughout the centuries on Halloween Night. I loved the illustrations in this edition, especially this one that's perfect for #AutumnFoliage #OctoberPhotoADay.

pickHaven‘t read this in 20 years, & the Netflix show it loosely inspired is great, so I gave it a listen. I love the drama & hyperbole of Poe! Slightly cheesy music at transitions, but narration good. #underthewire #Scarathlon #audiobook #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall #31in31 #outstandingOctober #Finalstretchathon
pickHad to read fast to finish this spooky page-turner of a team read! A fading rock star & his Goth girlfriend become stronger as they fight a vengeful ghost. As a writer, I may reread the first 50 pages, to appreciate the seamless introduction of the ghostly, hypnotizing stepfather. Vivid description & clever metaphors await the reader on the night road. #Scarathlon #teamread #31in31 #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall #finalstretchathon #OutstandingOctober
I think this is my favorite anthology so far even though it only had 3 authors for 13 stories. Each story was original and well-plotted with good imagery. These stories reminded me of “Outer Limits” or “Amazing Stories.” A good word search score for only having 147 pages = 2,340. 4.5 stars.

pickWell-crafted creature & body horror short stories by Canadian talent Jae Mazer. Limbs and blood fly in vivid (and sometimes darkly comic) ways. I really enjoyed “He Likes Vanilla Cake The Best” and “Blubber Murray” (think “Thinner” meets Bloody Mary). “Aisle Four” is quite disturbing (moms who are not hardcore horror fans might want to skip it). #horror #Scarathlon #horrorbywomen #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall #31in31 #spookoween #OutstandingOctober
pickAnother flash fiction anthology done. This one I liked a lot. It was a lot more cerebral horror than Dark Halloween, but the stories still packed a punch. It had a low weed search score at 230. 4 stars.

Another good Halloween collection. This one was more eerie and compelling vs. the gore of Dark Halloween. 3,120 word search score.

A single mother moves her family to a remote island so she can paint a mural in an old lighthouse owned by the wealthiest man in town, when 2 of her daughters suddenly go missing. 20yrs later 1 of them is found, but she hasn‘t aged at all.
Loved how this book pays homage to the unnamed ppl burned at the stake for witchcraft.
Incredible artwork from https://paontaure.tumblr.com/post/659665149134831616/some-illustrations-i-made-f...
^ our first meeting of 9 year old Earl. Just started this one yesterday, I love a good creepy child trope 🎃

A young man who is born into unfortunate circumstances in 18th century France has such a hyper refined sense of smell that he experiences the world through scent. He becomes a perfumer, and spends his life trying to create for the perfect scent.
Ok, ok, i've hopped on the bandwagon - I added some little ghosts and pumpkins to cover up some unfortunate water damaged that happened to these prints. #litsycrafters #ghostpainting #BatBrigade
