Halloweeny Comic & Graphic Novel Recommendations

Thanks to Hoopla and my amazing library, I've picked up quite a few graphic novels and comic book series over the years. I've been reading a lot of comics this month in particular, since I seem to have an obsession with Batman this year, and I wanted to read more superhero stories before Halloween. To me, Halloween isn't just witches and ghosts I also think about fantasy, mystery, and superheros. Anything that could inspire a Halloween costume is in my wheelhouse as we approach the 31st!

These are just a few recommendations based on my perusal through comics over the past few years. the first three Nimona, Zita the Spacegirl and Lumberjanes are all relatively light-hearted and fun reads. The second row, featuring Monstress and a couple of those before-mentioned Batman comics, would be in the adult realm. So depending on what you are looking for this fall, I have a few bases covered!

Nimona Zita the Spacegirl (Zita the Spacegirl, #1) Lumberjanes, Vol. 1: Beware the Kitten Holy 
Batman, Volume 1: The Court of Owls Batman, Volume 4: The War of Jokes and Riddles Monstress, Vol. 1: Awakening (Monstress, #1)

Creepy TV Episodes, Podcasts and Recommended Reading - #AllHallowsWeek




Image result for stuff you missed in history
Are you ready for all things generally creepy? Are you ready to be spooked in many different formats? If so, this is the post for you! Today I'm recommending some creepy TV episodes and podcasts. Then I am sending you out to other blogs to check out some cool posts about costumes and some books I haven't read.

Spooky Listens -

One of my favorite podcasts is Stuff You Missed in History Class. In October they often feature topics outside their normal realm of historical topics. Though all of their episodes are well researched and full of facts, these October episodes are spookier and have more unexplainable elements.

Ghosts of History: A Haunted House Tour - Homes with tragic history!

Beast of Gevaudan - Possible French werewolf attacks!

The Hagley Woods Murder - Who put Bella in the Witch Elm?

The Disappearance of the Sodder Children - Actually the scariest case of arson you will ever read/listen to.
