Gothtober 2014 Incantation! 

Witches and wizards, and ghosts full of fright,
Apply for Gothtober before twelve at night!

The clock it’s a ticking, your time’s running out,
This year will be one to remember, no doubt!

Prepare all your poisons and pickles and potions,
Begin harvesting all your terrible notions!

Arise and bestow upon us your grave whim
Whether bloody or funny or really quite grim

Just thirty-one doors will be part of Gothtober
Make sure you come join us before it’s all over!

Okay, now you know, and so you have been warned

ghost_extendo_2014_sidebarCALL FOR GOTHTOBER PARTICIPANTS!!! THIS MEANS YOU!!!
Due to the fact that I accidentally ERASED the Gothtober application data and it was down for a few days, some of you were unable to apply because nothing was there! I re-installed the data, and anyone who couldn’t find the form will have no trouble finding it now!

Gothtober is an online advent-style calendar that counts down the days to Halloween, and it consists of 31 “doors”, each day revealing a Halloween treat made by a different contributor! We do this because we LOVE Halloween, and we love bringing everyone together engage with each other, make and do stuff and celebrate the season. It’s ART, goshdarnit!

This blog is not Gothtober, this blog just tells you everything about Gothtober, if you want to see the calendar, go HERE. 

You don’t have to be an “artist” or an “expert” to be part of Gothtober, and we always need new blood so to speak. If all you have is snapshots and some napkins with words on them: I can help you turn that into a slideshow!

This year we will actually be handing out AWARDS for various pieces, and we’re calling it “The Ichabods” complete with PRIZES! Prizes will be announced soon, we’re working on that, but please consider scrunching up your gray matter and making something fun or frightening for Gothtober’s Ghoulish Group for 2014, APPLY TODAY!
