About this Event
Hosted in the wonderfully enchanting atmosphere of The Haunted Bookshop, we are
celebrating 2026 —the National Year of Reading— with imaginative weaving of drawing and spooky storytelling.
Our guests for the evening will be presented with a selection of haunted and spooky objects to draw while enjoying a glass of wine or a non-alcoholic option.
All art materials will be provided, and no drawing experience is required — simply bring your curiosity for the supernatural and your enthusiasm for drawing! Those who are used to certain materials and sketch books are welcome to bring them along for their own comfort and convenience.
To get our imagination going, we will be reading/listening to scary short stories & poems, and passages, while atmospheric music plays in the background.
A word of warning... expect the unexpected!
