The Haunted Library: A Literary Masquerade at the Parlin Memorial Library
All are invited to the annual Everett Public Libraries Literary Masquerade: The Haunted Library, on Friday, October 17th at 6pm. This is a free seasonal event with fun for all ages, as long as you don’t mind a few spirits of stories past coming out to play!
Mingle with our ghostly guests and dance the night away with spooky specters. Wander the maze of our shadowy stacks as happy haunts materialize before your eyes! All ages are welcome to this evening of eerie fun, and those that come dressed in the best literary costumes will go home with a spooky treat.
“Our staff are so excited to share this event with the community again. Last year was such a hit, from our low-sensory cozy corner to our haunted maze full of characters, we had a little something for everyone,” says Victoria Iannuzzi, the Head of Circulation of the libraries. “This year we’ve decided to expand the activities to both floors so our young patrons can join in on the fun!”
The masquerade will include free refreshments for everyone, and entertainment for kids and adults alike! Snow White will be paying us a visit in the Children’s Department, but this spooky show is not intended for children under 5. Parents can enjoy the festivities upstairs while the youngsters are looked after by the librarians down below.
