  8. Hi, everybody. Thanks for playing my Halloween Trivia on Shelley's Book Case and thanks to Shelley for inviting me to participate!

    Congratulations to the four winners, too! Each will get to choose a book from four of my spook-ernatural titles: CHLOE'S SPIRIT, BLESSED ARE THE EAGLES, HOLY SMOKE, or HEAVEN SENT.

    Here are the answers to the trivia questions:
    1 - c
    2 - a
    3 - c
    4 - c
    5 - b
    6 - d
    7 - b

    Please accept my apologies for omitting two words in Question 4: It should have read: If you wear your clothes INSIDE OUT on Halloween night and walk backward, at midnight you will see:
    a. ghouls
    b. ghosts
    c. witches
    d. Hogwarts
    It didn't seem to matter, though. Everyone got it right!
