Talk:Bibliography of Halloween

Untitled
Other than their having spooky elements, what do these literary works have to do with Halloween? The title of this entry appears to be misleading. I'm tempted to recommend deletion. Comments? Rivertorch 06:26, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Now that the intention of the article has been clarified, I'm removing the titles which don't apply. Halloween is not a prominent theme in Dracula, Frankenstein, or The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde; it's actually not a theme in them at all. Any book entitled The Collected Works of Edgar Allan Poe wouldn't be short stories but rather a collection of short stories, poems, and one novel. That is a moot point, however, because Poe didn't write Halloween-themed literature anyway. My recollection is that Halloween was an oblique theme in Something Wicked, not a prominent one, but my recollection may be faulty so I'll leave that one alone. All this leaves the page rather sparse, but better accurate and sparse than the alternative. Rivertorch 01:14, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

"Clay" in James Joyce's Dubliners is centred around Halloween and Halloween games.PeadarMaguidhir (talk) 09:39, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Article title
Since the current list contains both Fictional and Non-fictional titles, the article title "List of fiction works about Halloween" was inaccurate and thus was changed based on the suggested guidance in WikiProject Bibliographies. --Mike Cline (talk) 18:57, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
