In Our Feeds: Halloween, Harry Potter, Witches and...Baby-Sitters Club!

Each Friday, we share a handful of links we found interesting, provocative, funny or just plain cool. We call it In Our Feeds. Have a great weekend, and have a spooky Halloween!

Now this is useful, and saves us all some legwork! Time did a roundup of everything J.K. Rowling has revealed about Harry Potter in 2015... "so far." That "so far" is so tantalizing!

Take it to the next level: For those of you for whom donning some glasses and a striped scarf is no longer enough, here are 31 (!) alternative Harry Potter Halloween costumes. Really, really into that baby Dobby.

I personally never tire of tattoo roundups. To ignite your body art envy, here are 30 tattoos that are inspired by great books. 

Here is a seasonal take on real estate ogling: Flavorwire put together a slideshow of Real-Life Literary Horror Houses. Creepiest basement award goes to Edgar Allen Poe. Anne Rice gets a nod for dedication to serious window treatments.

Looking for a hobby? Why not get into visiting the grave sites of famous people? Before you go, bone up on these ten graveside traditions for folks such as Oscar Wilde and Elvis Presley.

Dracula? Over it. Frankenstein? Snooze. Check out these 31 "fairly obscure" literary monsters.

Couple costume alert! If you're doing a couple costume, you have to be in it to win it. Check out these really good literary-inspired costumes if you're still planning. (Don't worry, we have Ron & Hermione and Katniss & Peeta.)

If you liked Khaleesi and Khal Drogo from the link above, check out these 8 Halloween Costumes only "Game of Thrones" Fans Will Get. (From the perspective of a non-fan of GoT--I know, I know--I can confirm that they indeed do not make any sense.)

Haven't done the KonMari Method yet? I know, it's hard for book people. Instead, why not check out these creative ways to store your books.

SOME of us in the office *cough* are obsessed with everything witchy. So to that end, here is an article entitled "Why the Salem witch trials still haunt the American imagination."

The same individual mentioned above splits her time between witch obsession and Baby-sitters Club obsession. How many original BSC books have YOU read?

And finally, what do you do for some fast cash? If you're thinking of modeling Halloween costumes, you might want to read this first.
