“When the right books are picked as winners we pay attention. We will be spreading the word about Readers’ Favorite.” –Karen A., Editor for Penguin Random House

Readers’ Favorite is proud to announce that “Halloween Horror Nights Unofficial: Around the Globe” by Christopher Ripley won the Finalist Award in the Non-Fiction – Music/Entertainment category.

Christopher Ripley said, “I am so very humbled and grateful for this award.  This book was by far my most favorite to research as the stories contained within linked directly into the construction of the original Universal Backlot.  The rich horror heritage is intertwined into the DNA of the event, and this is clearly evident throughout. The research into the urban legends and an 80-year olf mystery being solved by this book is the true cherry on the top!”
