It’s October, and I’m definitely getting into a Halloween state of mind. I have multiple horror movies ready to go at a moment’s notice. Of course, that’s true of me any time of year, but this month it’s more socially acceptable. It’s also a good time of year to peruse some horror fiction, whether it be the works of Stephen King, H.P. Lovecraft, or good old Edgar Allan. I could also go for a Brian Keene book, an old Weird Tales collection, or perhaps some Richard Laymon, though I’ve been hit or miss with him lately.

Regardless of what kind of literature gets your scare on, the scariest thing in the world would be forgetting to follow The Gerbil on social media. Like me on Facebook , follow me on Twitter, and check out what I’m doing on Tumblr.
