It’s October and that can mean only one thing…Halloween! And for HYP Book Club, that means some scary, creepy stories. This month’s reading is the classic Shirley Jackson book, “The Haunting of Hill House.” And for added spookiness, we’re also reading five stories from Edgar Allan Poe: “The Black Cat,” “The Tell-Tale Heart,” and “The Fall of the House of Usher.” To leave some mystery to it, when you RSVP, you’ll get the last two stories. They’re short enough that you’ll have time, even if you’re on the late end.

We’ll meet at the Midtown Scholar at 2:00 in the lobby – look for folks carrying copies of the books; then we’ll find a table in the back room. Please contact Joe Foner at joefoner1@gmail.com to RSVP or for questions. Hope to see you there, and happy reading!
