Come celebrate with us! We’re giving away a Supernatural Underground Halloween Book Prize Pack, filled with 24 books, all written by Supernatural Underground authors, Moi included.
The tradition Halloween dates back thousands of years to the ancient Celts. Like a New Years Eve celebration, samhain, (pronounced sow-in, summer’s end) heralded the last harvest of the year and the beginning of the long winter. Druids would dress in animal costumes, light the ‘bone fires’ and make sacrifices to the wild gods. The spirits of the dead, and those who have not yet been born, would join the living, share food (the feast of the dead) and tell fortunes. On this night, the veil thins and the spirits walk among us! In the morning, each hearth would then be lit with with embers from the bone fire, a protection for the coming 
months.
But by 1000 A.D., the church subsumed this celebration into All-hallows (from Middle English All holowmesse meaning All Saints’ Day) and the night before it was called All-hallows Eve, or Halloween. At the heart of it all, we still experience the honoring of the spirits of the un-living – the things that go bump in the night!
To help that celebration along, the authors at the Supernatural Underground wanted to do something special this month to commemorate the spirits of the dead! It didn’t take us long to figure out the perfect giveaway!

You know the best thing about this comp? If I win I get to read so many authors who are new to me!!!! I’m a huge Kim fan of course, and I love Nicole Murphy’s Asarlai series. Now I’m drooling at the thought of even more fab authors to discover!
What a fabulous idea. Sign me up!
Woo hooo! I know what you mean! Even I, after being a part of the Sup Nat for over a year, haven’t read all the authors in this giveaway. Reading Jeaniene Frost atm. Love her! Jamie Rush is a huge favourite too and I’m in a Vampires Gone Wild anthology next year with Pamala Palmer and Kerrelyn Sparks. So cool! You’ve read Helen Lowe, yes? She’s Kiwi, a wonderful writer (epic fantasy) and a poet. And of course Nicole Murphy’s sizzling series and AA Bell’s . . . both Aussies. It’s really a wonderful list!
