A special ghost tale from our recent history - - -

Greetings all.

     You've heard the enduring legends of the many battlefields throughout the world being among the most haunted places on earth. Much has been said about restless spirits, having died during military conflicts, being unable to release themselves from the etheric loop they are trapped in. A very sad thought, really. It seems the more intense and violent the battle, the more pronounced and enduring the haunting.

     Many people have sworn to have seen and even have photographic evidence of spirits from ancient battlefields (here in the US, it is most often the infamous Gettysburg area where Civil War-era ghosts are said to remain), where brother pitted against brother brings the most unrelenting purlieu.

 

     This ghostly tale, entitled Beneath the Fallen Green, we bring to you in our Fall 2026 issue of Autumn Brilliance, reveals a most poignant time in our recent history: it takes place in a deep and dark forest in the small village of HÜrttgen, Germany, during the latter days of World War II, and reveals the one-on-one conflict of an American soldier against a German soldier... sworn enemies of a bygone era.

     But the question is, what happens in the end, when it's all over? 

     Written by Nashville writer and US Army veteran, Mark Greenbaum (who is also our magazine's awesome technical support guy), this tale is special and unique in that it is presented in a poetic form... it's guaranteed to send a shiver down your spine and, quite possibly, a tear to your eye.

  The Fall 2026 issue of Autumn Brilliance will be available on Monday, September 7, 2026. A link to order your copy will be posted here, on the left side of the page - just click the magazine cover. 

 

And now, our release date! - - -

Greetings to all friends and fans of handmade Halloween art!

 We're very proud to announce the debut of the Fall 2026 issue of Autumn Brilliance!
**Available MONDAY, SEPT 7th 2026**

 

--->PLEASE NOTE: You can purchase only at two places:
1) Online via our website (link here to the left side of the screen)
2) In person at Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween on Saturday, Sept. 26th in Marshall, Michigan - Calhoun County Fairgrounds

(Please do not fall prey to scammers - we have no outside "agents" or "event helpers" of any sort who will contact you for sales!)

 

Like every issue before it, this one was meticulously planned and created solely by me, Ellen Gee, in my wee home studio in Tennessee, which is where I ship them from directly to you.
And I'll say, this issue may indeed be one of my most cherished... so many of my favorite artists are assembled within, and I know you will agree with that because they're your favorites as well.
 

*** Each artist holds the high honor and standards of creating their art the only true way that art is supposed to be made: by their imaginations and their hands. (NO AI is ever permitted in the magazine.)
 

*** We are grateful beyond words to each artist who participated in this year's issue - it could not have turned out as awesome as it is without YOU  

 

Whisked into a tiny world of wonder! - - -

Greetings, all -

Just another day and we enter the glorious first day of the "ber" months: September is knocking at the door, with actual autumn but a few weeks away. After this dreadfully hot summer, I know we all could welcome a change in weather and scenery. A few trees are already beginning to transition their foliage... we are ready and willing for this, and for Halloween, please!  

Here's a question for you. Did you ever see a Halloween diorama that pulled you in, enveloped you, and made you feel like you were a part of the display?

 
*** Fool Crow's Vicki Nelson does that to us every single time. Instead of people in these magical displays, wee mice are the subject of her whimsical scenes, where she portrays them trick or treating, pushing tiny carts laden with plump pumpkins or fanciful witch hats, dressed in stately top hats or pretty little dresses, bobbing for apples at a mouse's Halloween party... just incredible and adorable! Each one is charming in ways you scarcely could imagine. You feel the excitement for an old fashioned Halloween and all of its enchantments swirling about, ready to burst at the colorful seams!

 
*** Of course, everything you see is hand-made, full of Vicki's lifelong love of all things autumn and Halloween. Her attention to detail is just incredible, and her legion of collectors are the first ones at her booth every year during the Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween show, which is where you will find Vicki and her delightful art. We invite you to come visit her and find yourself swept away in a Halloween wonderland! - - - And don't forget to ask her to autograph your copy of the magazine!

*** We're so happy to present Fool Crow in the Fall 2026 issue of Autumn Brilliance. Like Vicki, you can also find us at the Bewitching Peddlers show on September 26, 2026 in the beautiful town of Marshall, Michigan. We'd love to meet you - come tell us your favorite Halloween memory!

---> Our Fall 2026 issue will be available for sale online on Monday, September 7th. Click the magazine cover's link on the left side of the page here to order your own copy! - We do have a history of selling out quickly, so we do urge you to get your copy quickly!
