Halloween Spooktacular | November 18, 2015

by Shaina Birkhead (Children's Book Council)

Halloween+Spooktacular
Nora as Sabriel!

This year’s ECC/YPG Halloween costume party is going down in the books as the spookiest of all spooktaculars! Hosted at the aptly decorated Slaughtered Lamb Pub in NYC’s West Village, the party took place in the dungeon! The kid and adult lit worlds collided with the best of results! New friendships were formed over bowls of candy, and we crowned a new costume contest champion.

Nora Long was the run-away winner in her extremely detailed Sabriel outfit, complete with bells, sword, key-adorned fabric, and a Mogget perched on her shoulder. But that was not the only awesome costume spotted at this year’s event. See them all on our Facebook page!
