![]() ![]() So here’s the story: A publishing house, Facts on File, was looking for writers to put together proposals for holiday books. If that were my only connection to Halloween, though, I’d be writing fiction. It’s physical for me-the light comes at a certain angle in October, the temperature drops, there are colors that only exist at that time-I can sense it more than understand it. Lesley Pratt Bannatyne: I’ve been a Halloween geek since the very first time I put on a cape and a mask and ran out into the dark of suburban Connecticut. How did it come to be such a personal area of interest for you, and if you were to be featured in your own book, what section would you find yourself in as you devote yourself to one special aspect of this spooky holiday? You have written several books and articles on Halloween. It’s a great read, filled with people with passion for the holiday, and covering a lot of topics related to it. ![]() TheoFantastique: Lesley, thank you for making some time during the Halloween season to talk about your book Halloween Nation. If you want to explore the various ways in which fans are enjoying Halloween, then Lesley’s book is a “must have” addition to your library. In this interview, Lesley discusses her most recent book, Halloween Nation (Pelican Publishing, 2011). We are kicking off the Halloween season today with this post, an interview with Lesley Bannatyne, author of a number of great books related to this great holiday. ![]()
