Welcome to Booville!
Welcome to Booville is a zine documenting
the girls of Halloween. Specifically, Booville is concerned wtih a unique
phenomenon during the Halloween holiday: the appearance of otherwise "normal"
or "good" people in the disguise of "evil" witches or devils. This cultural
oxymoron manifests itself in many pop culture figures: Sabrina, Caspar's
friend Wendy the Good Witch, Samantha from Bewitched...and these
days there's even a Barbie in a witch costume! Examples exist in department
store sales circulars, children's books, LPs, and in many other places.
Welcome
to Booville documents them all.
