I'm getting alot of Anons and DMs suggesting it was fashion designer Siobahn Mackenzie who was the mystery lady with Sam in this pic at The Witchery last week 👇
She was seen looking verra heart eyes 😍 with Sam at the Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel event in Edinburgh, where both their companies were featured. 👇
And people are pointing out her fingernails match the one seen in the dinner pic with Sam. 👇
Could be...and it would make sense. They've known each other for awhile, and they knew they'd both be at the event, so maybe they met up the week before to catch up. 🤷♀️
What do you guys think? 🤔

5 Book Recs Based on Your Favorite Nostalgic Halloween Movie!🎃
I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite parts of October is watching all the classic spooky season movies I grew up with. It brings back all those fond memories of childhood fall festivities, Halloween costume planning, and the joy of filling up your candy bucket while trick-or-treating (even if you had to fight your mom about wearing a jacket with your costume because it was too cold). If you’re in the middle of your yearly Halloween movie binge or haven’t had time because of the hot new books dropping recently, here are some ghoulish book recommendations based on some of our favorite nostalgic Halloween movies!
If you like Hocus Pocus (1993), then you might like Dead Man’s Float
While there might not be a big musical number led by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy in the middle of Dead Man’s Float, this story will surely leave you gasping for air. There is no doubt that Hocus Pocus is one of the most classic Halloween movies of all time, as the dubious Max unleashes the iconic Sanderson sisters to enact their revenge on Salem. Shawn Sarles' haunting YA horror novel follows this same hair-raising idea, except this time, a seemingly harmless prank unleashes a ghost with unfinished business and intent on finding its killer. If you’re in the mood for a more frightening version of the classic Hocus Pocus story, I recommend you start reading Dead Man’s Float now!
If you like Halloweentown (1998), then you might like Shadow Coven
Halloweentown is well-known for its inclusion of literally all things Halloween and its empowering story of a young witch who will go to extreme lengths to save her family and the world from an evil power. Similarly, S. Isabelle’s second installment in The Witchery series, Shadow Coven, centers around a group of witches who must defeat magical and mundane threats to save themselves and their coven forever. While there might not be any friendly skeleton cab drivers, Shadow Coven includes some kick-butt witches just like Marnie and her family that will surely have you reaching for the spellbook this Halloween! Start reading now!
If you like Casper (1995), then you might like Sixteen Souls
Casper the Friendly Ghost is a staple nostalgic character during the Halloween season. How could you not love the sweet and cute little ghost who falls for the girl who moves into the very mansion he’s haunting? Fans of the movie Casper will have no problem jumping into the spooky yet swoony YA debut Sixteen Souls by Rosie Talbot. This ghostly tale is about sixteen-year-old Charlie, who gets dragged into hunting down the cause behind the mysterious disappearances of several famous spirits by an irritating yet charming new ghost seer in town. Sixteen Souls is sure to give you chills, all while making your heart melt as Charlie must deal with his growing crush and work to save York’s spirits at the same time. Start reading Sixteen Souls now!
If you like Beetlejuice (1988), then you might like Beholder
Whether you became a fan by watching the 1988 film with Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder or the quirky modern-day musical, there is no denying that Beetlejuice has cemented itself as one of the most iconic ghost stories of all time. While Ryan La Sala’s Beholder is much more mysterious and sinister than the joke-filled dark humor of Beetlejuice that we’re used to, both stories explore a world where dark, evil powers must be stopped before they have the chance to take over fully—one just comes in a pin-striped suit with green hair. Start reading BEHOLDER!
If you like Scooby Doo! and the Witch’s Ghost (1999), then you might like At the Speed of Lies
It goes without saying that any Scooby-Doo! film or episode is a year-round classic. But during the Halloween season especially, there is something even more thrilling about watching the gang from Mystery Inc. kick some monster butt. This undefeatable group of friends is no stranger to solving their town’s mysteries; still, Quinn Calvet from Cindy L. Otis’ At the Speed of Lies certainly wasn’t expecting to get swept into the mystifying chaos of her town’s latest disappearances. Fans of Scooby-Doo! will love this modern twist on mystery solving that we’ve all grown to love, thanks to Velma, Daphne, Fred, Shaggy, and Scooby. And while Quinn might be well on her way to becoming the “it girl” of The Whine, her town’s growing social media platform, I’d be remiss if I didn’t give a shout-out to the original it girls–The Hex Girls from Scooby-Doo! and the Witch’s Ghost. Start reading At the Speed of Lies!

I've always wanted to stay at this hotel in Edinburgh called The Witchery. It's got such cool gothic, Castle Dimitrescu vibes but the prices just aren't for me...🌹

The Witchery by S. Isabelle
Today's sapphic book of the day is The Witchery by S. Isabelle!
Summary: "A bewitching debut by S. Isabelle, perfect for fans of Maggie Stiefvater, Zoraida Córdova, and Leigh Bardugo!
THE HAUNTING SEASON IS HERE AND THE WOLVES ARE AWAKE.
Haelsford, Florida is a hellmouth. Or at least, that’s what Logan, a baby witch struggling to control her powers, thinks as she arrives to the witchtown to begin the new school year at Mesmortes Coven Academy. She is immediately taken under the wing of the infamous Red Three. Iris is a deathwitch who wants nothing more than to break the town’s curse; Jailah is one of the most powerful witches at the academy but her thirst for power may lead her down a dark path; and Thalia, the talented greenwitch, is on the run from her religious family and a past that still haunts her.
Fear and prejudice still fuel the uneasy truce between humans and witches who are forced to work together when the Haunting Season begins and Wolves rise from the swamp to feed. With this approaching, two Hammersmitt boys prepare to make their first sacrifices to the witches in exchange for protection. But as they become involved with the Mesmortes witches’ plan to end the Wolves’ reign of terror once and for all, old dangers lie in wait.
The cost to break the curse may be greater than any witch or human could ever know."

For our commitment ceremony me and @parkerpants built and bound a broom together.
A broom can be hung over your home’s front door to prevent gossip, unwanted guests, or curses. They can be used symbolically for protection, but their main use is for clearing away negative energy ahead of, or during a ritual. Marriage is one of the most sacred rituals of all ✨🖤
Our broom is from @thewitcherymarket

So, day three in Edinburgh...
I’m starting the day at Greyfriar’s Kirkyard, which is a medieval church and graveyard with some colorful residents. It’s also the place where the skye terrier, “Bobby” is reputed to have visited his owner’s grave every day for 14 years, and there’s a statue of Bobby nearby
(Greyfriar’s Bobby statue from Must See Scotland)
A little over a year ago, I lost my dog, Cricket, who was my constant companion for 12 years. I’m not sure I’ll ever get over that loss, or can even explain what she means to me, but visiting Bobby while in Edinburgh feels like a necessary part of saying goodbye
I will probably be a mess after this, so I’ve given myself some time to sit with my feelings and maybe get something to eat before the next thing I do, which is a walking tour of the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle
(Edinburgh Castle via Trip Advisor)
There are actually two castles in Edinburgh, the Palace of Holyrood (which I’ll talk about more later) and this one, dating from the 11th century. The Royal Mile stretches between them, and most of the early city of Edinburgh was built around Edinburgh Castle
After the castle tour, I’m treating myself to dinner at The Witchery, which is just...
(The Witchery via Trip Advisor)
The Witchery is a restaurant and inn at the base of Edinburgh Castle, near the location where witches were executed from the 16th to 18th century. The Witchery is darkly gothic, and sort of pays homage to those who lost their lives. It’s also a popular stop for ghost tours on the Royal Mile
After dining with the ghosts of witches, I head back to my hotel to sleep and get ready for my last full day in Edinburgh
The next morning I’ll be hitting Edinburgh’s other castle, the Palace of Holyrood. This one’s a bit more contemporary than Edinburgh Castle. It was built in the 15th century and was once home to Mary, Queen of Scots. It’s also where the current royal family stays when they’re in Edinburgh
(The Palace of Holyrood via Wikipedia)
After the palace, I’m hoping to grab lunch or tea nearby, then spend the rest of the afternoon on the Royal Mile just shopping and sightseeing. Then I’m spending my last night in Edinburgh at The Piper’s Rest, a pub known for its craft beers and nightly live music. Then I wake up stupidly early the next day to catch a train back to London, where’ll be for several more days
I think that’s good for now. I’ll make another post on my London leg of the trip later

The Witchery || S. Isabelle || 384 pages Top 3 Genres: Fantasy / Young Adult / Witches
Synopsis: Haelsford, Florida is a Hellmouth. Or at least, that’s what Logan, a baby witch struggling to control her powers, thinks as she arrives to the witchtown to begin the new school year at Mesmortes Coven Academy. She is immediately taken under the wing of the infamous Red Three. Iris is a deathwitch who wants nothing more than to break the town’s curse; Jailah is one of the most powerful witches at the academy but her thirst for power may lead her down a dark path; and Thalia, the talented greenwitch, is on the run from her religious family and a past that still haunts her.
Fear and prejudice still fuel the uneasy truce between humans and witches who are forced to work together when the Haunting Season begins and Wolves rise from the swamp to feed. With this approaching, two Hammersmitt boys prepare to make their first sacrifices to the witches in exchange for protection. But as they become involved with the Mesmortes witches’ plan to end the Wolves’ reign of terror once and for all, old dangers lie in wait.
The cost to break the curse may be greater than any witch or human could ever know.
