Halloween Short Stories and Horror Books

Date posted: October 30, 2009
Category: Holidays


Celebrate Halloween by modifing the short story search featured in the last Library News item to find Halloween related stories or by checking out a horror book from the library collection.


You can modify the search suggested in the last library news item to find stories related to Halloween or any other area of interest. 

To do so, use the link (and search strategy) provided in the last news item and then add Halloween related terms in the next search box. 

For a more comprehensive 'Halloween' search, add several terms separated by an OR and enclosed in parenthesis.  For example:

(halloween or ghost or goblin or pumpkin or jack-o-lantern or witch or scary or horror)

You can see this search in action by following this link to Halloween Related Short Stories.  Feel free to add other Halloween related terms such as vampires, ghouls, cemetery, bloody, etc.  Be sure to place these terms INSIDE the parenthesis and separate them with an OR.

Horror-Related Books can be found be putting the word 'horror' in a subject search of the library catalog.  This search will help you find horror tales, horror movies, and books about such movies and tales.
