The air is getting colder and the leaves are changing colors. That means that Halloween is right around the corner. Stop by the Edison Public Library and celebrate spooky season with us as we have some silly fun.

We’ll be hosting a couple of storytime events for the young ones so be sure to register to listen to some not-so-scary monster stories. Then join us at the North Edison Branch for a special screening of the original Hocus Pocus. Children are encouraged to dress in their favorite costumes for all of these events.

Don’t forget the scary stories! Since it’s the time for chills and thrills, swing by your local branch and check out a scary book. There’s no better way to get into the Halloween spirit! Read one of your favorites, or try something new—we've got a few selections down below, or ask a librarian for a recommendation.
