As the Halloween season approaches, Kannapolis is setting the stage for a chilling evening that will lure in fans of young adult thrillers. The local Swanee Theatre will play host to a Halloween book release event on October 30 at 6 p.m., gathering book lovers and costume enthusiasts alike for an evening of literary excitement.

In a recent news release by KannapolisNC.gov, it was announced that debut authors Rowana Miller and Roselyn Clarke will be spotlighted at the event, ready to unveil their latest novels. Miller's book, "Secrets of the Blue Hand Girls," and Clarke's "Now She’s Dead," are both being teased as spine-tingling thrillers perfect for the season.

Open to the public with no admission fee, the event is geared towards tweens and teens eager to delve into new stories that promise to send shivers down their spines. The authors will be on-site to autograph their novels, engage in Q&A sessions, and perhaps share some insight into their darkly imagined worlds.

Following the signings, the evening will continue with a book fair featuring an array of literary delights, music, dancing, and an assortment of literary gifts available for purchase. Attendees are encouraged to dress up, with the event organizers promising much more spooky fun. In anticipation of high demand for the newest releases, Editions Bookstore is offering attendees the option to pre-order signed copies of the books to ensure no one walks away empty-handed.
