πŸŽƒπŸ‘»πŸŽƒ


The Queer Halloween Stories Bundle 2023 has drawn to a close this year, and in total we sold 860 bundles for $23,329! Thank you to all of our participants for contributing their wonderful stories, all of the folks who featured us on their corners of the internet, and the players who bought, played, and shared our tales. We truly couldn't have done this without you.

So what happens now?

If you've gone through a couple of items and haven't done so yet, the best way to keep supporting your favorite creators is to leave a 5β˜† rating and comment on pages~ This helps even more people find their work so they can keep creating! Lost track of what to rate? Log into your itch.io account and go to your Library to find the "Things To Rate" page, which we're sharing below too.

Stay tuned for a postmortem on the bundle!

For now, we're passing the baton to the Games for Gaza Bundle that's raising funds for the Medical Aid For Palestinians organization. While we're not officially affiliated with the organizers, nor do we have any content in the bundle ourselves, we stand in solidarity with those on the occupied Gaza strip.

Available until November 9th, 2023.



Monsters and magic in all shapes and forms mean something special to queer folks, and we've bundled together 120 Digital & Physical Games, Books, Comics, and even some audio dramas to show off the wonderful world of indie queer Horror & Halloween-adjacent art you won’t find in mainstream media.

We've raised over $15,000 for over 80 creators, and all purchases of the Queer Halloween Stories Bundle go directly to our participants so they can keep making art in the future. There's still time to pick up your copy of the bundle thoughβ€” what are you waiting for?

  • 22 Physical Games
  • 7 Books/Zines
  • 3 Comics
  • 3 Audio Dramas
