Re: Halloween in the UK

well its nearly Halloween in the UK, and some of the shops are already stocking up on goodies, and it seems to be a pretty decent spread this year (although nothing in comparison to the USA!). My Halloween book is released on Monday the 10th, a first of its kind in the UK. And also the first ever UK...

Re: Halloween in the UK

Wales is also very mountainous wheras England is quite flat - Our mountains are riddled with castles, and old mansions and ancient cemeteries. I live on a small island off the coast of North Wa...

Re: The Summer Solstice has passed....

Oh dear I am quite the opposite of the majority. I adore the winter, it can never come quick enough or last long enough for me. I adore the short days and the dark nights, the cold, the damp, the snow and the ice. Listening to the storms pounding the house. But, then again, I am a writer, if the sun...

Re: Halloween in the UK

Hey Mike, I work in London every now and then, will be there for 3 weeks in August. Some of the cemeteries in town are astounding, Highgate and the Brookwood Necropolis to name only two. These places have a long reputation for being haunted. I live in Wales, on an island just off the north coast, an...

Re: What is happening to Halloween?

Oooh--let us know when your book comes out, and its title! I agree about the resiliency of Halloween. I have always felt that it lives on because it responds to a human need.
