Hallozeen is where we make zines to celebrate Halloween. Make zines about whatever Halloween means to your eldritch heart. It's the twelfth year in 2026. You don't have to make a twelve themed hallozeen, I just like a mnemonic for which year I made zines. Midnight. The twelve days of Halloween. Dodecahedrons. Clocks. Twelve signs of the zodiac (ophiuchus erasure). But Halloween is the real star here. I bet you have strong feelings about something Halloweeny. And chances are you'll meet someone at Hallozeen with a hot take on a similar theme, so your zine better be specific in describing your particular predilection.
