If yes, you may be a fan of Gothic Horror. Join us, the Gothic Horror Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania -- GHASP! Our acronym is a portmanteau of the fiendish "ghast" and the "gasp" you might make at seeing one.
Part book club, part social club, part film club, part writers club, GHASP! will have meetups ranging from book/short story discussions, outings to Gothic locations, movie nights, and even writing critiques, if you are so inclined. Join us on our journey into Gothic Horror and beyond.

Beers & Fears at 13th Child Brewery
13th Child Brewery, 345 South Main Street, Williamstown, NJ, USI know, I know.. this one lies across the magical barrier of the Delaware River that prevents PA folks from crossing the bridges except if they are proceeding to the shore - but the trip will be fun and worth it : )
13th Child Brewery is hosting a Beers and Fears event, a book festival featuring 8 different horror authors, on Sunday Oct. 12th.
Ever wonder what its like to write horror? Interested in chatting with some authors about their works, the craft of writing, or horror in general? This is your chance! With some tasty brews on offer in the bargain!
If you've never been to 13th Child Brewery, it is named for the famed 13th child of Mother Leeds - the fabled Jersey Devil of pop culture and folklore. Operated by 3 partners, the brewery is located in a restored bank building built in 1906 that has a ton of character. You can find more info on the brewery and the event here: 13th Child Brewery.
