Welcome to Litsy!

Okay, #ScreamTeam! We're in the #HauntedShelf home stretch! Just a few more days to finish that book, get those bingo lines and blackouts, and check in on Cluedo to squeeze in as many extra points as you can.

**Report your final points total by Sunday, November 2nd**

Either make a post or comment below with ALL of your points, from bingos, readathons, games, word searches...everything!

Time is flying, #ScreamTeam, and the mid-month points check-in is almost upon us! Tomorrow-ish (19 October), please tally your points and either post an update on your profile and tag me, or post your points in the comments. (I confess that I have not been keeping track of my own points at all, so if you're having to look back at your posts and figure out your points from scratch, you're in good company!)

Okay, #ScreamTeam! Here's the #HauntedShelf game for the second half of October!

Here's the second of the two #HauntedShelf games I'm posting about today, #ScreamTeam.

This one is a month-long game all about finding words in your spooky reads! I always love this idea and then do horribly because I forget to look for the words, so hopefully you do better at it than I do. :-) (I suppose I could search the words in my ebooks...not sure why that never occurred to me until now.) At any rate, have fun and track your points!

Okay, #ScreamTeam! Although the #HauntedShelf solo games are on the Discord server and Google Drive, I'm posting a couple more here, too, to highlight them.

This one is a month-long game posting book recommendations that fit the prompts. Have a fun time, and be sure to tag posts #ScreamTeam and #HauntedShelf, and tag me if you'd like so I can see your recommendations!

#HauntedShelf #ScreamTeam Book Chain!
Teams create a chain or list of books where each book has something in common with the book before it, e.g.:
Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice – Dracula by Bram Stoker (Has a vampire character) - The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells (Published 1897 same year as Dracula) – The Witch King by Martha Wells (Surname is Wells)

Post each book as a new comment to the game post. 10pts per book. Infinite points

#HauntedShelf #ScreamTeam

Book Scavenger Hunt!
Find books that match the prompts. They can be from your own collection, from a book shop or library, or from your e-book archive

They are open to interpretation. For example ‘Orange‘ could mean an orange cover, the word orange, or the fruit orange.

15pts per cover found with a maximum of 465pts to earn. Post throughout October.

It's not midnight where I am, but I know it's midnight (or getting close) for some of you, so here is the first of a couple of #HauntedShelf posts to get you started, #ScreamTeam!

First, an overview of the points system. Exciting and spooky!

You can find a points tracker and lots of other good stuff on the Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1E4W1geiK9TvLniayV03nUER_UbQ0pNIx?usp=dri...

No way I‘m getting through all of these BUT I like options! About to board a couple flights so I‘m very ready for #HauntedShelf. Go #ScreamTeam!!

+25pts

Hello, again, #ScreamTeam! Here's another challenge for you to keep in mind as you're putting together your #HauntedShelf TBR.

If you read any of the Team Lead Favorites/Favourites (from any team), you can stack an additional 15 points each on top of any other points you've earned for reading that book!

It will quickly become apparent that my spooky story love language is “haunted houses,“ and my choices reflect this. :-)

Alright, #ScreamTeam...here's your pre-game #HauntedShelf challenge, should you choose to accept it!

25 points for posting your October TBR
25 points for posting an October book rec
10 points for sharing the sign-up link or post

The sign-up link: https://forms.gle/wmcY27wyx6awp3EfA

You're tracking your own points, but I'd love to be tagged on your posts!

Welcome, tagged Littens, to team #ScreamTeam for #HauntedShelf

I'm your team lead for this adventure, here to answer questions, post information and challenges, and cheer you on!

I'll tag all team members in every team-related post, but because notifications can be funny, you might choose to follow me for the month (you can always unfollow me in November. 🙂).

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's haunted reads!

Movies of the day:
Addams Family Values - I could quote this whole movie.
The Burbs - My favorite Tom Hanks movie.
Scream - I was in college when it came out, and I would actually get prank phone calls asking me what my favorite scary movie was 😱
#BlackCatCrew #Scarathlon

Watching my first scary movie of the season! #scream #halloweenmovie #scarymovie #drewbarrymore #scarathlon #teamcryptkeeper @LiseWorks

1. 🦉
2. Anything spooky, but also cozy mysteries!
3. I love group costumes!
4. I love them but I rarely wear them! Sad but true!
5. Scream. All of them.
6. Reese‘s cups and tootsie rolls!

Getting close with this one. The free spots are for if I catch something on TV I want to watch or if I discover something I want to stream.

By the way, I watched Slasher (season 3) all day yesterday... super gory.

A lot of shows/series, not a lot of movies yet.
