Gather round Otherworld occupants for I have a ghastly tale to tell of horror and woe....

I don't really, but I have a swap that I hope you will all love.

This swap is a scavenger hunt. Below I will list 12 themes that fall into the abyss that is The Otherworld. Your mission is to find/make/scavenge and send an item for at least 8 of these themes.

Ideas of things you can send: ATC's, charms, fabric, ribbon, washi tape, postcards, matchboxes, bookmarks, paper, ephemera, small books, craft supplies, stamps, zines.

Please send a mixture of items. If you send an ATC for one theme don't send an ATC for another. I am going to limit this to 4 handmade items.

Your 12 themes are below:

  1. Classic Horror Movies
  2. Mythological Creatures
  3. Zombies
  4. Vampires
  5. Witchcraft
  6. Crows/Ravens
  7. Grimm Fairytales
  8. Paranormal/Ghosts/Haunted Houses
  9. Creepy Circus/Freakshows
  10. Tim Burton
  11. Edgar Allen Poe
  12. Skulls/Día de los Muertos

Senders choice so you can start working on this now, but please check partners profile for any allergies or massive fear of clowns etc

Please send on time, rate when received and enjoy yourself.

Any questions please ask away. This is the first scavenger hunt I have hosted so I will also welcome suggestions!

Hey! This looks great but I think this should probably be type 3 not type 1

VASaint 01/24/2015 #

This should totally be a type 3 ;)

Yes I put that on there as I know it's quite a common phobia.

Mines snakes. shudders

Mine phobia realistic-looking spiders (and real spiders). shivers But they're okay as silhouettes.

Watching for now. :)

I'd love to join a U.S. only version of this swap in the future~ anything over 4 oz. or not completely flat and bendable costs $12.75 to mail overseas. My post office is super strict on this- even a single tea bag in an envelope costs over $9.00 because they refuse to send it as a letter. :/ Super awesome idea though- I love the theme choices!

If anyone would like to contribute to this post about postage costs I'd appreciate it. Trying to get a better understanding of the US postal service.
