For many people the mention of autumn conjures an image of Indian
summer and multicolored trees. For others, autumn is more than an
idyllic scene, it represents an experience composed of ominous
rustlings in the night, preternatural moonlight, predatory winds,
skeletonized trees, and, of course, Halloween. Autumn transforms
this particular group of people by stimulating their perceptions
and imaginations. Autumn becomes for them a peculiar substance to
be absorbed through the pores of the skin until it saturates the
soul like wood smoke. Come October... opens a window on a
terrifying world where unremarkable objects such as a plate of
spaghetti, the seeds of a pumpkin, a guest book, assume sinister
connotations and lead to unexpected consequences. Come October...
invites the reader to experience the underside of Halloween, and
the few months preceding it, through twelve tales of horror and
complementary verse.
