It’s the day we’ve all been waiting for-October 1, the official start of Fright Fest!
I’ve planned quite the spooktacular month, full of giveaways, guest posts, & reviews. To make things easy for all involved, I’m going to cover the basics of Fright Fest in this introductory post.
1. Books-Every book I review during the month of October, as long as it is a book I own (and not a library book!) will be included in a weekly prize pack giveaway!
2. Giveaways-To be entered in a weekly giveaway all you have to do is write a post about anything spooky or Halloween related. Link your post to the Mr. Linky at the bottom of this post. You can enter the weekly drawings as often as you like, however, each entry must be a completely new post. Here are some post ideas:
- Write a review of your favorite scary book or movie
- Write about your biggest fear! What scares you the most?
- Write about your favorite Halloween costume you wore in your childhood (or adulthood!)
- Submit a ghost story!
- Post about your favorite fall receipe!
3. Contests! There will be two big contests held throughout the entire month of October, one for “Best Decorated Pumpkin” and the other for “Most Elaborate Halloween Decorations.” These contests will be judged by you, the followers of this blog. More information about these contests will be posted at a later date.
4. Post schedule: A ton of great guest posts & reviews have been submitted, and I have a ton of books I want to feature as well. I’ve tried to limit posts to no more than 2 day, but there may be instances in which this might reach 3. I apologize in advance! It’s nearly impossible to recommend all the books I’d like to in just 31 days!
I’m still accepting submissions for guest posts & donations for giveaway! If you are interested in either, please fill out this form.
Ok so there you have it…let the fun begin!!

Finally! FrightFest! I’m going to celebrate by starting on Justin Cronin’s The Passage at Starbucks while drinking a delicious pumpkin spice latte.

This sounds like lots of fun. I’m hoping to read The Fall by Chuck Hogan and Guillermo del Toro and write a review for October.
Woo! Can’t wait for the fun to begin!

Bummer, Chicago Author Month is going to keep me from doing a Halloween-y post, but you’d better believe that I’m still going to be following along!
I’m excited!!!
I have been looking for something. I have quite a few scary books I’d like to read. So may limit myself to four.
We’ll see what happens!
