Hallowread is a book festival and
mini-con for authors and fans of Paranormal, Urban Fantasy, Steam Punk and
Horror.
October 21-23 2016 in Havre de Grace,
Maryland!
Multi author event with various
activities throughout the weekend including Writing Workshops, Ghost Tour,
SteamPunk Author Tea, Author Panels, Book Signing, Paranormal Investigation and
so much more. Hang out with your favorite authors in our new host city, the
haunted and historic town of Havre de Grace, Maryland!
Local Maryland author of dark
urban fantasy, Rachel Rawlings, had a crazy idea. Create a book convention for
genre fiction and hold it the weekend before Halloween. Haunted and historic
Ellicott City held a special place in her heart so there was no other place to
take her first ever convention. The town welcomed her and HallowRead with open
arms. Each ticket sold helped raise money for the Ellicott City Partnership- a
coalition of residents and business owners for the betterment of the town.
HallowRead raised money for projects like rain barrels which help reduce the
sediment and contaminants running into the Patapsco River and fund grants for
projects like Paint Main Street which helped small business owners get a much
needed fresh coat of paint improving the moral and over all appearance of the
town.
Rachel is excited to take the
convention on the road for 2016 and raise funds for Harford County literacy
programs and the local library system! One ticket, whether it’s a $10
paranormal investigation or the full monty ticket, makes a difference for the
town and the wonderful people who call it home, something Rachel is extremely
proud of.

About
the Founder of Hallowread:
Rachel Rawlings was born and
raised in the Baltimore Metropolitan area. Her family, originally from Rhode
Island, spent summers in New England sparking her fascination with Salem, MA.
She has been writing fictional stories and poems since middle school, but it
wasn't until 2009 that she found the inspiration to create her heroine Maurin
Kincaide and complete her first full length novel, The Morrigna.
When she isn't writing, Rachel
can often be found with her nose buried in a good book. An avid reader of
Paranormal/Urban Fantasy, Horror and Steampunk herself, Rachel founded
Hallowread- an interactive convention for both authors and fans of those
genres.
