Embrace the Chills: Join Our Spooky Season Reading Challenge

October is the perfect month to curl up with books that send a delightful shiver down your spine. That’s why Bumblebee Nook is thrilled to introduce our Spooky Season Reading Challenge — a cozy, thrilling way to celebrate fall with a new spooky book each week.

This isn’t about overwhelming your reading list. It’s about savoring four carefully chosen stories across October, each offering its own mix of atmosphere, suspense, and chills. You’ll explore haunted mansions, unravel eerie mysteries, meet unforgettable monsters, and finish with a pulse-quickening finale — all from the comfort of your favorite reading nook.

How It Works

• Four weeks, four books. You’ll choose one spooky read each week throughout October.

• Your lineup, your choice. Pick from our suggested list of titles or create your own mix of gothic classics, supernatural thrillers, and eerie modern tales.

• Join the community. Post your progress, share your thoughts, and tag your photos with #BumblebeeNook and #SpookySeasonReads.
