Halloween through queer perspectives

This young adult horror anthology brings together 13 short stories, each centered on a different BIPOC teen during Halloween night. The collection uses familiar horror tropes and tales as a frame for stories about transformation, with queer authors of color contributing perspectives that connect terror with humor and heart. Halloween is more than a backdrop here: the description presents it as a night when change—and possibility—comes into view.
