Halloween October Book Fair 2025

[alhawke]

Halloween's coming around again! This is the fourth time I'm running one of these annual Halloween promos. For those of you who've been lurking here long enough, you'll remember me writing posts inquiring on how to run any Bookfunnel promotion four years ago, lol. I'm looking to co-promote Halloween themed romance and/ fantasy / sci/fi books. Witches, vampires, ghosts, creatures of the night are all wonderful (but please have your book fit the holiday). All price points are welcome. New authors are welcome. Boxed sets and pre-orders are welcome.

I'm inviting this year's promo to horror. So, though you can enter with cozy/clean romance books or even young adult, be aware there will be adult stuff, including romance books with steam--like my own.

As is usual with Bookfunnel promotions, you are expected to share this promotion with your mailing list at least one time and on social media platforms as often as you like

I'd love for some of you from WriterSanctum to come along and join me this Hallow's Eve

The only Halloween book I have is in KU, which I assume counts it out?

That link is no use for anyone who doesn't have a Bookfunnel account. Can you reproduce what the details page says here?

Sure, here's details in full, shrunk cause it's long. But you have to be a member to participate in any Bookfunnel promo. It's about $20/yr for the basic plan. There's many to participate in, not just mine; currently 300 fantasy & 800 romance promos set for the rest of 2025. KU writers join all the time--you just link to your amazon sell page:

Note from Organizer: Yep, it's that time again. Another Halloween bonanza! This is my fourth annual book fair hosted on Bookfunnel for Halloween! I'll be promoting my newest prequel trilogy with loads of fanfare and visibility for All Hallow's Eve. Let's promote our witchy stuff together!
I'M LOOKING FOR witches, vampires, ghosts, monsters etc. You get the idea. As long as it's witchy and involves Halloween-like characters, I'm flexible. Young adult books are welcome, but please be aware that books with higher heat levels will be included in this promotion. This year, I'm welcoming horror books!

BookFunnel Sales promos can be highly effective, assuming the book fits the theme well. The click to sale conversion rate is a lot higher than in AMS. However, books on sale do better than books offered at full price.
