The Haunted Book Shop

New and used bookstore in downtown Mobile, Alabama. Come in for the cat, stay for the geekouts and sepulchral droning chants which definitely aren't there.

@Rynamic64 @AriaEbenfalls If you've never seen it, do yourself a favor and watch this. https://t.co/9ALk0s4xB0

@Rynamic64 @AriaEbenfalls One of the great martial arts movies. It manages to be a parody and a very good example of the form.

@MattFnWallace We live to give out cool stuff!

[Matt Wallace is Updates Only @MattFnWallace]

OH HEY. @KirkusReviews gave a great one to my forthcoming middle grade novel NOWHERE SPECIAL, calling it “hopeful” and saying it has “a diverse and richly drawn cast.” Sure wouldn’t mind if y’all shared this around. https://t.co/k8H5inTyj1

We're proud to offer some swag for Matt Wallace's new middle-grade, NOWHERE SPECIAL! If it's anything like any of his other MG books, it'll be great!

(Seriously, Bump destroyed us. Supervillain's Guide to being a Fat Kid left us staring at the wall. 10/10, highly recommended)

@PineyWoodsHIS Here, have a picture of the cat

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

@MattFnWallace I love how that design was revealed and reaction was torn between "Thor has divine origins, he wouldn't be fat! He's supposed to be a warrior!" and people going "oh my god that's the build of a man who is unstoppable if he decides to be a problem"

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

@tonytost There's a fun energy to it. It's not a realistic movie but it's not trying to be. It's trying to be a comic strip brought to life and it accomplishes it handily

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

Our best-sellers for the past month! Anne Bedsole's whole pitcher of tea Leave Your Footprint, our namesake book, Peter Swanson's Nine Lives, Samuel & Sarah Hyde's Rebel Bayou, Carolyn Haines' new Tell-Tale Bones, and @Ursulav's cozy horror The Twisted Ones! (With picture!)

@ramona_reeeves (Also, it occurs we need to get Leopold some updated flags, but those were given to us by customers)

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

@ramona_reeeves This shout-out earns you a visit from Leopold the Pride Skeleton. Be blessed with the confidence to be yourself and safe in doing so.

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

We will be closed today to honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

yes please support us and also any giant bugges with fabulous tastes in pens and ink

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

@NeolithicSheep Oh, it is a travesty. Sometimes someone eats beef jerky and doesn't share! or oatmeal. Or yogurt. And he just stands there and weeps.

Gotta admit, the stuff he begs for is...odd choices for a cat.

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

@NeolithicSheep Truly, denying him options is robbing him of his freedom! We are unjust oppressors! Send help to liberate Bingley!

...hey why was this open. I go away to help a customer and come back to an unsent tweet

[The Haunted Book Shop @HBS_Mobile]

@NeolithicSheep Funny enough, he doesn't usually perch on books. However, he is a great aficionado of chairs, windowsills, and keyboards.
