READING AT HAUNTED BURROW BOOKS

Fans of Dark Shadows and horror graphic novels will want to pop by for Craig Hurd-McKenney's signing of his latest, Curse of Dark Shadows. He'll be at Haunted Burrow Books from 4 to 6pm.

Also, plan to spend some time and drop some money on some great deals, as member Roxanne Guiney's wonderful pop-up bookstore, which has generously served the horror community since it began last year, is having some early moving sales to help reduce inventory. The shop will eventually close this summer due to its building's slate for demolition. So here's a chance to get some great books at some even greater prices and enjoy this sweet little dark corner of Capitol Hill while you still can.

...After this event, hop across the lake to...
