Product Description
Halloween is huge on the Internet and this guide will point the user to the very best resources online for both Halloween and the horror genre, while making an overall examination of some of the traditions, folklore, and history of Halloween and all things horrific. The book is not only an interesting introduction to these areas, but also provides resources for those hoping to delve deeper into the topics.

Each chapter lists the best relevant sites and includes a brief description and pointers for surfing, as well as information on additional programs needed by certain sites. Learn how best to celebrate Halloween with sites on Halloween costumes, pumpkins and jack o lanterns, throwing Halloween parties and decorating, and Halloween recipes. Check your fortune with online Ouija boards and palm readers. Be entertained by sites on horror, sci-fi, and fantasy artists, movies, fiction, and television, including archives, review sites, and author and celebrity sites. Get Halloween goodies for your computer such as screensavers, fonts, games, and wallpaper. Study up on the creatures of Halloween, unexplained phenomena, and ghosts, with ghosthunting Webcams and virtual haunted houses. Explore the traditions of Samhain, funeral customs, cemeteries, and epitaphs, with a celebrity grave search engine and instructions on how to make your own grave rubbings. From learning about the Mary Celeste to shopping online, this work will guide the Halloween lover through the Internet.

5 out of 5 stars The Devil's Web   September 10, 2006
Draconis Blackthorne (The Haunted Noctuary)
An extensive compendium of Halloween and otherwise Horror resources on the net.

Many subjects to choose from within this nefarious genre from artistry, to literature, poetry, music, holiday history, superstitions, character origins, psychodrama, multimedia, recipes, online goody recommendations, and costumed fun-eral.

Read by flickering screen and candle light in the gloom of your haunted room, and allow your imagination to transport you to arcane realms for amusement and fright!



5 out of 5 stars An Informative Tour Guide of Halloween and Horror Sites   August 21, 2004
Snardles (Iowa)
Click or Treat provides a smorgasbord of Halloween & Horror, internet-style. Whether you are a budget conscious parent, a paranormal researcher, or someone just surfing for some good sites and laughs you will find something for you in this book. The Internet by its very nature is an ever changing thing but I found very few dead links in Click or Treat and highly recommend this book.
