You know how when October arrives your calendar fills up so quickly and you feel like you're missing so many spooky events because there just isn't enough time? Well, I've started looking for events that I can attend and honor all year long so that I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. Here's my calendar for this week.
Wednesday the 26th
- Alse Young was tried and executed for witchcraft in Windsor, Connecticut (1647). The first person to be executed in the Connecticut witch trials which predated the Salem witch trials by 30 years.
- Morbid Anatomy's Online Workshop Make Your Own Memento Mori (runs 4 Wednesdays from the 2nd to the 23rd) $125
- Online Pop-up Ghost Stories with New England Curiosities on Facebook at 7PM EDT
- Dracula Published (1897)
Tuesday the 1st
- Lizzie Borden Death Anniversary (1927)
- Hugh Walpole Death Anniversary (1941) Wrote a collection of ghost stories called All Soul's Night.
Wednesday the 2nd
- Peter Sallis Death Anniversary (2017) British actor with rolls in many spooky movies and tv shows. Best known as the voice of Wallace in Wallace and Gromit films
Happiest 124th anniversary to Dracula. The impact this instant classic has had on the literary realm and the world in general would be impossible to overstate.
