Halloween
& Autumn Festival 31st October - 5th November
Saxton
is all set to host this year's 'Halloween
& Autumn Festival', a week long celebration, from
October 31st to Bonfire Night, on November 5th. Local folk
have pulled together to make the Samhain Celebration extra
special, with Apple Bobbing, Masks, The Halloween Triathlon
and late disco, in The Bear.
"It's been a darker than normal year, for us Saxton
folk" said pub land lady,
Morgan Mankle "after the tragic death of Professor.
Hardacre, and the
incident with the missing cats, we all need something to
cheer us up".
Events
start at 6pm on Halloween, centred around Maiden Square,
the site of the famous Witch Trials and Executions. Many
pagans, men, women and children, met a grisly fate on the
spot where you can get your face painted or enjoy a tasty
hot dog.

Writer's
Workshop
Marilyn
Marvéll is hosting a series of 'writer's workshops',
in the Drinking Den of The Bear, during Festival Week. It
is not known whether Marilyn has the necessary talent to
lecture others, as we have yet to read her book, or meet
her, for that matter. But, if you're pretentious enough,
perhaps this events is for you? There is a slim chance of
cheese and wine afterwards, so it may be worth taking a
look.
Excerpt
-
'Neville
pushed his way through the ancient Saxon tunnels, fighting
at the urge to just scream like a girl and RUN from the
old Northfield Kingdom.'
The
Ghost-Hunters - They found love in a haunted place,
by Marilyn Marvéll.
