Celebrate Halloween with an evening of spine-tingling, bone-chilling true tales, hosted by local author K.L. Griffiths. She will be joined by Neil Sater, Ann Heward and other storytellers who will share the real-life encounters that inspired by their most haunting stories. These are not urban legends from someone's cousin's neighbor's boyfriend – these are firsthand frights from your very own community.
Expect to be grossed out, goose bumped and even a little horrified ... all in genuine fun.
Q&A, book signings and book sales will follow the storytelling session.
Note: This event is not suitable for young children or those sensitive to scary content.
K.L. Griffiths is the award-winning author of Spiked, Bookworm and short stories praised for their memorable characters and twisty plots.
Neil Sater, a lifelong fan of all things creepy, is the author of Phantom Realm and Mercy Killing, both haunting entries in his ghost story series.
Ann O' Mara Heyward writes award-winning quiet horror that explores the unsettling in everyday life.

In 1829, Charles Hyde Olmsted promised to donate 500 books from his father’s collection if the residents agreed to change the name of their town from Lenox to Olmsted. They did and the books traveled by oxcart and were housed in individual residents’ homes while being circulated. The “Oxcart Library” is thought to be the first circulating public library in the Western Reserve.
