Join us at Celia Bookshop in Swarthmore for a spooky evening celebrating queer horror, macabre media, and all things Halloween.

Joe Carlough, author of Queer Horror, will explore the intersection of queerness and horror, looking at how LGBTQ+ identities, themes, and experiences have shaped the genre across film, literature, and pop culture. After the conversation, stick around for some Halloween shopping and browse an eclectic selection of books, gifts, and other spooky finds.
