ECC/YPG Halloween Spooktacular | November 13, 2014

by Johanna Kirby (Trade Marketing Assistant, Macmillan Children's Publishing Group)

ECC%2FYPG+Halloween+Spooktacular

The 2014 ECC/YPG Halloween Spooktacular was a huge success! The Dove Parlour was filled with literary figures, from Paper Bag Princesses to Hogwarts students and beyond. We had a great time seeing everyone’s book-inspired costumes, eating copious amount of candy, and spending time with our fellow young publishing professionals. This year’s costume contest first prize winner was Chelsea Cutchens with her creative Edgar Allen Poe inspired raven costume! Second prize went to Amy Rosenbaum, who was a very generous Rainbow Fish and shared her sparkly scales with many enthused bar-goers.

Thank you to everyone who came out and made this event so fabulous! Now it’s time to start brainstorming costume ideas for next year…
