Come celebrate the release of Bargain Witch, a new book of essays by Brooke Palmieri about magic, monstrosity, roleplaying as a wolf on the early internet, and queer and trans witches! And what better way to celebrate than with one of our favorite films about a supernaturally sex-driven femme fatale? We’ll kick off the evening with a meet and greet at Sleepover Trading Co. at 7pm, followed by a snappy Q&A with the author about the folklore of shapeshifting and animal familiars–both themes of the book that Peaches Christ calls “a spellbinding triumph…like a séance with your smartest, sassiest coven.” The Q&A will be followed by a screening of Cat People (1942) at 8:30.
