Okay, so hereās the deal. This is, in essence, like every other book challenge out there. Thereās a list of prompts. Fill āem and have fun! But Iām expanding on the theme because what better time to be āevilā than the run-up to Halloween?
1. Post something bookish for every prompt that inspires you (between October 1 and 31). This can be a photo, rant, book review, gifset, fancast, video, dramatic reading, etc. Get creative, have fun, and maybe challenge yourself a little.āØ
Every five posts, youāll level up one Spook Factor.
1-4: cat
5-9: ghost
10-14: zombie
15-19: vampire
20-24: werewolf
25-30: witch
31-34: pirate
35+: superheroāØ
2. You can also go Trick-or-Treating! Some of the items (see below) are general challenges for the month (like how many books you read), some relate to types of posts, and some are a little odder. Theyāre all meant to encourage creativity and italicized items are stackable. (If you post one cat photo, thatās good. If you post three cat photos, thatās better.) Any post with the #bookoween hashtag will be checked against these lists whether you try for them or not, and you do not have to work them into the prompt posts. Extra posts are allowed and even encouraged!āØ
3. On the evening of October 31, spilling into November 1 as needed, everyone whoās posted for the challenge will receive an ask stating their Spook Factor and the results of their Trick-or-Treating. For every Trick you do, youāll get either amusingly tragic backstory or trash-tier Halloween loot like toothbrushes. For every Treat, you get an unspecified amount of candy.āØāØ
Example: You are a vampire who limps due to a freak bouncy castle accident. You have two Snickers bars, a Tootsy pop, a Butterfingers, an OāHenry, a box of raisins, two boxes of M&Ms, and a ball of caramel corn.āØ
4. Post everything with the #bookoween hashtag. Yes, itās been used before. No, it hasnāt been used in two years. Therefore, itās fair game. (Mwahahaha.)āØ
If you correctly identify all 22 prompt sources, you also get a thing in the Halloween ask. To keep this fair, please send your answers as asks or through the messenger. If you spoil it for everyone, you also get a thing (and the angry glares of all booklr, so maybe donāt).
