Hello,
Halloween is one of the most fun times of year.
Ghost, werewolves, zombies, and more emerge from the dark to
prowl the night. Candy from trick or
treat bags satisfies a sweet tooth. And
scary stories are told to keep friends and family up at night. That is what Halloween is.
And during October patrons were able to see the theme of
"This Is Halloween" throughout the Teen Zone.

Decorations
For
Halloween the Teen Zone became a haunted graveyard. Bats emerged from behind pumpkins, tombstones
were covered in spider webs, and giant spiders watched patrons from above.
At the end of the shelves bats were
arranged so it looked as if they were in midflight from behind the
pumpkins. Their red eyes seemed to
follow those walking through the book stacks.

I was able to reuse the fence that
was previously used in the Banned Books Week display for the graveyard. The black fence was placed in front of the tombstones
with pumpkins on the side. A black owl
was perched by the fence, standing guard.

Spiders were used throughout the
display. One was covering the Teen Zone
sign with its web. While the other,
Sheila, looked down at patrons walking beneath.
A caution sign was made to warn that Sheila bites, though the skulls she
had previously collected were a sign of what might happen.

At the end of the stacks I created
shadow silhouettes of a variety of monsters people may see during
Halloween. The creatures ranged from a
werewolf, zombie, vampire bat, and even a cthulhu.

Book Display
The books put on display were related to the theme of
"This Is Halloween." Novels
about vampires, zombies, demons, and many others were available for teens to
read for a scary good time.
