RESCHEDULED TO OCTOBER 30th!

October 9, 8pm: Horror Story Read-A-Roke, West Seattle 

The horror open mic for storytellers, readers, and fans of scary tales happens one more time this year on Thursday: The Read-A-Roke!

Love to listen to scary tales, classic and contemporary?

Want to read your own horror stories, or a favorite from your own collection?

Have a true ghost story you want to share, open mic style?

The Seattle chapter of the HWA is sponsoring this horror-friendly “read-a-roke” event at Seattle’s only horrorcentric bar, 2 Fingers Social, hosted by owner/bartender Andrew.

There’s a mic waiting for anyone who wants to share a short horror story… either your own or from a favorite collection or book. Read them aloud right off the page or be the spooky storyteller and recite off the cuff!

We’re looking for witchy, spooky, hair-raising, bone-chilling, intense, even funny stories with a Halloween-esque flare. Bring us your tales set in a cabin in the woods, a haunted sea shanty, or a poltergeisted suburb.

There will be a selection of works to pick from for those who forget to bring something to read or are suddenly inspired to share! A fun event at an even more fun venue!

This is the last time it takes place in 2025; don’t miss out!
