All Hallows' Eve: A Very Gothic Menu
Hello, and happy (nearly) Halloween!
We've put together a three-course menu as a little treat (no tricks here), with recipes for a starter, main and dessert from the cookbook, along with an aparitif from our vintage-style cocktail booklet.
Hopefully it will provide some spooky supper/dinner party inspiration, tide over those of you who are so patiently waiting for the book to come out, and give some insight into what you can expect once it does.
Jpegs for each course, plus a menu you can print out for guests (or yourself), are here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1i_FwlC50D5DN--8r92ZPoU2wDBqHjvBj?usp=sharing.
Thank you again for your generous support. Please do keep sharing the link to our Unbound page – we're nearly there!
Ella, Allie & Lee

Cocktail Booklet
A beautifully illustrated booklet of libations inspired by favourite Gothic novels, printed in full colour on high-quality recycled paper, in the style of a bound pamphlet or vintage chapbook.
More than a dozen cocktail recipes include a Mint Espresso Martini, inspired by coffee and creme de menthe in Ira Levin’s Rosemary’s Baby, a Champagne cocktail as quaffed by vampires in Jewelle Gomez’s The Gilda Stories, and a Corpse Reviver 1818 – stiffened with absinthe and named in honour of the year Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein was published.
And, of course, your very own Cup of Stars a la Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House – though ours is a sheer, silky-smooth clarified rum milk punch based on an 18th-century recipe.
