X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Do you find yourself attracted&nbsp\;to th
 e strange and unusual? Do you enjoy what others may find frightening? If s
 o\, join the Horror Book Club where each month we'll provide you with dive
 rse horror authors and titles to discuss with people who enjoy the same ge
 nre as you.</p>\n<p>It&rsquo\;s autumn in the town of Harrow\, but somethi
 ng besides the season is changing there.</p>\n<p>Because in that town ther
 e is an orchard\, and in that orchard\, seven most unusual trees. And from
  those trees grows a new sort of apple: strange\, beautiful\, with skin so
  red it&rsquo\;s nearly black.</p>\n<p>Take a bite of one of these apples\
 , and you will desire only to devour another. And another. You will become
  stronger. More vital. More&nbsp\;yourself\,&nbsp\;you will believe.&nbsp\
 ;But then your appetite for the apples and their peculiar gifts will keep 
 growing&mdash\;and become darker.</p>\n<p>This is what happens when the to
 wnsfolk discover the secret of the orchard. Soon it seems that everyone is
  consumed by an obsession with the magic of the apples . . . and what&rsqu
 o\;s the harm\, if it is making them all happier\, more confident\, more p
 owerful?</p>\n<p>Even if something else is buried in the orchard besides t
 he seeds of these extraordinary trees: a bloody history whose roots reach 
 back to the very origins of the town.</p>\n<p>But now the leaves are falli
 ng. The days grow darker. It&rsquo\;s harvest time\, and the town will soo
 n reap what it has sown.</p>\n<p>Attendance is limited\, and advance regis
 tration is required. This will be used to save your spot in the program. W
