Read it! submitted by captainofouterspace on August 2, 2018, 2:26pm A tale of two boys and a creepy carnival, set in crisp autumn. Ray Bradbury's love for bringing October to life is the reason he and I are kindred spirits.

Beautifully Written Dark Fantasy submitted by globesky on August 20, 2018, 6:25pm This is such a well crafted story. Ray Bradbury's poetic imagery provide a beautifully vibrant stage for this twisted horror-fantasy. There is so much magnitude to his setting descriptions that you will be transported. Such a fun read!!! Spooky.

Transient submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2018, 5:51pm This is always a perfect read before Halloween! It's good for a large age range and gripping every time!
