(I have pretty vivid memories of those anyway.) Nope, I'm reading the poetry, and plenty of it fits well into October. "El Dorado" has a "shade." "Annabel Lee" sounds like a fairy tale gone bad. "Ullalume" is just spooky. "The Haunted Palace" not only fits the theme, but it's from "Fall of the House of Usher." And do I even need to mention "The Raven"?<br /><br />megginsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28439033.post-90701599917016562442009-10-14T08:36:20.372-07:002009-10-14T08:36:20.372-07:00I agree the news is too scary, so it's Ghost H...I agree the news is too scary, so it's Ghost Hunters (TAPS) for me! And I'm hoping they have another Halloween special like last year. <br /><br />I'll be starting The House of Seven Gables soon. Never got to read that old ghost story. On a recent trip to the House of Seven Gables in Salem, MA, hubby and I bought a copy. Meanwhile, I'm watching my Buffy DVDs. :)Dana's Blah Blah Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08097791597413958886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28439033.post-13617985841496480812009-10-14T06:44:20.321-07:002009-10-14T06:44:20.321-07:00I admit I like Ernest Scared Stupid.

What a marvelous idea, Pamela!<br /><br />One of the books that has always given me goosebumps and I happen to have a brand new copy (with 25,000+ books I can never find the one I want so I keep buying new ones of my favorites) is SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES by Ray Bradbury. And I'm hoping for a wild and windy autumn night on 10/31 so I can sit outside, in the dark, under the trees, with my book light and read REBECCA - a classic Gothic for a spooky night.Lisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13315265091119634416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28439033.post-7556807906919728652009-10-13T07:18:10.603-07:002009-10-13T07:18:10.603-07:00This month I've been watching Angel on DVD, re...This month I've been watching Angel on DVD, read a ton of fairy tales, and now that you mention it I'll probably start watching Supernatural again.
