Looking for a spooky way to start off your Halloween weekend?  Craving some free, freshly popped popcorn?  Stop by the Main Library Learning Commons for a look at some of the scariest items housed in the Special Collections and University Archives department.

With items ranging from truly disturbing illustrations, to stories of local hauntings, there’s something to startle everyone.  Special Collections and University Archives will have a selection of items available for browsing to help you get your Halloween weekend off to a historic start.
