Were you a fan of TV shows like Are You Afraid of The Dark, Goosebumps, and Tales from The Crypt? Do you remember your skin crawling just with the spooky intro of these shows – from the creepy swing in the dark, to the chilling piano chords, to the hair-raising laugh of the Crypt Keeper? Do you have memories of tuning in to every episode because no matter how scary each story was, you just had to have more? If you answered yes to all these questions, then Halloween Gothic Supper & Ghostly Tales is just the event for you. Happening on October 31 at Chawton House, England, get to relive the thrill you felt as a kid watching horror shows. The difference is this time, you’ll get to experience it firsthand without any tv screen, or blanket, to protect you. Get bewitched by the tale of “The Volunteer” after an enchanting three-course supper. Let the darkness, the crackling of the fire, and the eerie voice of the storyteller captivate your senses in celebration of Halloween. Proceeds raised from this spine-tingling event will go to Art Fund, an organization that has been connecting people, museum, and art for decades.

There’s a quote from Shakespeare’s Macbeth that goes, “Double, double toil and trouble: Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.” This Halloween, bring not toil nor trouble. Instead, bring hope and color to the community through art.
