There are 78 days until Halloween – maybe a few less than that if you’re picking up this issue after it’s gently aged on newsstands. Wherever the countdown sits, Austin Public Library knows that’s quite a few too many days for true Halloween heads. That’s why the spooky season comes early in the crisp air conditioning of the St. John’s branch. You can give your costume a rerun – or a test run – and imagine it’s October already. Crafts, snacks, and photos abound at this Halloween warmup for All Hallow’s Eve fans of all ages. – Caroline Drew
