The guests are all settled and filled with dread, while Visions of Vampires dance in their heads!  Join us tonight as your haunting host, Miranda Merrick leads you astray to meet some “blood enthusiasts” of olden times.  We’ll find some of the first famous vampires and hear how they were stopped, then we’ll weigh up our options for joining a nice, friendly blood-drinking cult.  Such a full evening… Our cup runneth over.  Welcome, Dear Guest!

You know the legend he created.  Tonight, our reading will tell you just how eerily all of the spooky pieces of Bram Stoker’s life fell precisely into place so that he could give the world--DRACULA!  Stoker had the right illness, the right grim mother, friends, books, and even the right nightmare that contributed to the making of the perfect literary monster, Count Dracula. So, find your favorite spot in The Reading Room and cuddle up with a wolf pup because we are Stoked for Stoker!

Welcome back, Dear Guests, to The Midnight Library. Tonight, your host, Miranda, will introduce you to The Famous Fox Sisters! Three wily women who took The Modern Spiritualist Movement by storm and left many a ghost in their wake. From a haunted old farmhouse, mysterious coded raps from another realm tapped out messages that put the women in the spotlight to perform their supernatural craft, driving throngs of people to pay them to contact their dearly departed loved ones. Please take your seat and meet: The Foxy Fox Sisters

Your journey to reach The Midnight Library is narrated in ASMR fashion by your humble host: Miranda Merrick.  Who will you meet on your walk?  

 

You’ve gotten in your car and driven to the edge of the village.  The main road has narrowed.  Forests, pastureland, and old farms dot the dimming distance.  Whatever life has had to offer you, whatever reality has forced you to of late- You’re looking for something different; a mood, a setting,... the warmth and chill ...of beings of a different nature.  You turn onto a nameless, lonely old road, marked only by a small, wooden sign that illuminates when your headlights catch it.  Its deeply carved script reads: THIS WAY TO THE MIDNIGHT LIBRARY

Well, Dear Guest, how do you feel about getting a little dirty? (Not like that!)  Join us tonight! - as we slip into the slime with Bog Bodies!!  How old are they?  How did they all get into the bogs in the first place?  What kind of fashion sense did they have?  What kind of tea do they prefer?  Visit The Reading Room and hear your Host, Miranda Merrick, get down and dirty with: A Bevy of Bog Bodies (No bog bodies will be harmed, molested, or bathed during this reading...probably.) 

So, you’ve got a little demon infestation.  Who ya gonna call?  More demons, of course!  Carefully make your way to The Reading Room, Dear Guests, as tonight Ms. Merrick holds court in the case of: DEMON Vs. DEMON.  Oh and there’s cake! Join us for tonight’s reading as we go down, down, down where the demons dwell! Isn’t that a Hell of a thing?

Welcome to tonight’s reading, Dear Guests!  We believe you’ll find the subject to be quite disarming… Granted the topic is a daunting one, but we are not defeated…

We’re determined to single-handedly tell you everything about… amputations.  We promise not to cut anything short.  So, get yourself together and join us in The Reading Room for, The Amputation Proclamation.

What if Miranda ever left The Midnight Library?  What if she showed up on your doorstep?!  This is the fate that’s befallen The Loremen (Now to be referred to as “Those poor Loremen”) Don’t worry, she’s brought her Holiday Snakes and the story of “The Ghost of Harry Main”- Join us as Our Ms. Merrick & Mr. Darling make a surprise visit to stay the night with Mr. James Shakeshaft & Mr. Alasdair Beckett-King. 

It’s just as terrifying as it sounds.  Tonight in a strange twist of fate, you find yourself alone with your favorite mysterious host for an intimate chat in which she answers the curious questions submitted by her trusty patrons.  A less guarded, more candid, but always enigmatic  Miranda will tell you the answers to some of The Midnight Library’s most asked questions.  How did Miranda meet Mr. Darling? What would she teach at Hogwarts?  Plus, a true Ouija Board story, actual book recommendations, and a strange confession...  What are you just dying to know?

You’ve been hopeful. You’ve been curious, patient, and vigilant. Tonight is your night. The Wendigo, in all of their incarnations, are assembled here in The Midnight Library. They are as anxious to meet you as you are to meet them. Take a seat by the fire or snuggle up with a wolf pup for protection. It’s about to get cold, dark, and oh so dreary. Hooray!!! Welcome, Dear Guests.
