Hey, guys! If you remember last week, I announced that Alyssa @ Books Take You Places and I were putting together a series of Halloween-related posts for your enjoyment. Well here’s the “official” official announcement! It’s called “A Fortnight of Fright” and it’s taking place from October 17th – 31st. We’ll be dissecting and discussing several aspects of Halloween fun, BUT we also want YOU to help with it. This was designed for all of us to get in the Halloween spirit and as much as we want you to read the posts, we want you to be a part of them too!
So here’s the breakdown: This is a rough outline of the schedule for the weeks to come!
October 17 – 20: Halloween movies, special guest posts, Halloween reads & book reviews, recipes/crafts
October 21 – 27: Scariest/best villains, Halloween TTT, more reviews, Haunted New England, ghost stories, best Halloween TV episodes
October 28 – 31: Alyssa’s trip to Salem, more reviews, real facts about Halloween
We are a week away and we’re still looking for some blogger participation! We would LOVE to feature you in a post. ANY of the topics list above, we want to feature a quote, blurb, or story from you!
Also, for all of my Halloween reads’ review that I’m posting (Something Strange and Deadly, Anna Dressed in Blood, Ten, Born Wicked), I’m featuring links & blurbs to other reviews for the same book. Haven’t read any of them? No problem! There’s also another full review pages for anyone else’s Halloween reads that they’d like to share! Links, blurbs, or mini-reviews – send ’em on over!
For all entries, please comment, tweet, or email me by 10/15/12. Since these posts are going live starting the 17th, the earlier the better, but no pressure 🙂

I would love to participate. I could do a post about why Michael Meyers is seriously the scariest villain ever if you are interested! 🙂
That would be awesome!! 🙂 Do you want to do a full guest post or be featured in the villains post? Just send me an email with whatever you’d like to do 🙂 Thanks!!
I’d love to participate! I’m not exactly sure how though. I could talk about the movie Hocus Pocus. Or the ghost stories by Mary Downing Hahn. Her books are more in the children’s/MG category, though. If this isn’t what you want, that is fine. Just let me know. I won’t be offended or upset. 🙂
That would be great! Either or both or more 🙂 lol. It’s all pretty informal since we’re just trying to make it something fun so whatever you want to do would be awesome! Thanks!!!
Fantastic. So what do I do now?
Whenever you’re ready, you wanna send me an email with the write up/whatever you want posted? 🙂
Okay. I can do that. I will try to do it soon, so you have it whenever you need it. Fun, fun!
Yippee! Thanks Quinn! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got for us 🙂
