Wordplay Wednesday: Goth(ic Lit) Night
About The Event
As the days grow shorter, come spend an evening with the darker side of literature at Planet Word on Wednesday, October 7 from 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Inspired by the atmospheric works of Edgar Allan Poe, the Brontës, Mary Shelley, and other masters of the genre, this month’s Wordplay Wednesday invites you to explore the language, stories, and characters that have captivated readers for generations.
Curl up with a classic in our Gothic literature reading nook, create your own illustrated scene with Gothic and macabre coloring pages, and play with the wonderfully dramatic language of the genre through literary games and activities. Enjoy Victorian-era details and decor alongside complimentary treats and drinks for purchase.
