This will be a day of panels (including a special panel celebrating the book, "The End of the World As We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King's The Stand" ), discussions, games, booksales/signings, and some unique events including:

Horror Book Recommendations from two of our very favorite booksellers and influencers – Ryan Elizabeth Clark of Gibson’s Bookstore and Lisa Dolbow of Barnes & Noble, Hingham. After spending some time with them, your TBR pile will most probably fall over but we know you won’t mind.

AND, we are thrilled to bring you psychic card readings! You’ll be able to sign up for a 20 minute card reading (It’s $20 per session and all proceeds will be donated to the Friends of the Ashland Library!) in which, if the cards align, you’ll gain meaningful insight, inspiration, and perhaps even motivation! Bring your questions to help our readers focus on your most burning needs. This program is brought to us by our friends at With Love And Gratitude. Sign up for a time slot today!

Books will be provided for the booksale/signings by Aesop’s Fable (our favorite Indie Bookstore!). We’ll have a preorder link available soon so you can guarantee that the books you want will be at the festival.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Ashland Public Library (www.friendsoftheapl.org).
