ctober marks the changing of the seasons, the movement from
warm, muggy summer to cool, crisp fall days.
To celebrate this time of transition, we at Jessup Library have declared
October “Supernatural Month.” Ghosts, vampires,
witches, creatures, aliens, UFOs, myths, legends, all manner of things that go
bump in the night are available on our shelves!
Start with classic Edgar Allan Poe tales in The
Illustrated Edgar Allan Poe, including “The Cask of Amontillado”, “The Fall
of the House of Usher”, and “The Pit and the Pendulum” and experience the
spine-chilling works of a master macabre writer. Or, read about who Bram Stoker based his
classic villain Dracula on, from Vlad the Impaler to Mephistopheles in Who
Was Dracula?: Bram Stoker’s Trail of
Blood. Discover the origins of
Halloween in Lisa Morton’s Trick or Treat:
A History of Halloween.
Curl up in a blanket and enjoy the creepy and crawly from
the safety of your favorite armchair with a book that makes your hair stand on
end @ Jessup Library.
