Attractively designed and illustrated by well-known cartoonist Seth (creator of several New Yorker covers, graphic novels, etc.)

Small trim size and inexpensive price = perfect for register display.

Attractive Seth-designed loader ideal for register placement available.

Similar series of Xmas Ghost Stories by Galley Beggar Press have sold 30,000+ in UK.

Very strong response from media looking for "feel good" holiday news stories from multiple angles, including: 1) reviving old traditions, 2) novel and appealingly counter-intuitive take on Christmas as a spooky time of year, 3) Seth's recognition and reputation for great interviews 4) inclusion in holiday shopping gift guides

Potential marketing to specialty shops, incl. comic book stores, Christmas gift stores

Striking design and classic stories make the books appealing as collectibles
