Stuff Your Kindle Day started as a grassroots event organized by authors to get more books to readers. It's a magical 24 hours where authors drop prices on e-books — some cost a few dollars while others are totally free. While the official Stuff Your Kindle Day has come and gone for 2024, a new event is here, and it's for the horror lovers.

Terrify Your Tablet Day began last year, organized by Horrorsmith Publishing, a publishing house founded in 2022 specializing in horror. The event debuted for the first time in 2023 and is coming back this year. Here's what we know so far:

When is Terrify Your Tablet Day?

Terrify Your Tablet Day is a fairly new event. It debuted last year on Oct. 31, 2023. This year's event kicked off Oct. 3, 2024and is officially live. Shop now and load up on spooky, scary books to read all month long in anticipation of Halloween.

Who can take part in Terrify Your Tablet Day?

While Stuff Your Kindle Day sounds hyper-specific to Amazon's e-readers, it actually applies to pretty much any e-reader. The same is true with Terrify Your Tablet. As the name implies, you can access the free and discounted books across all e-readers including Kindles, Kobos, iPads, and Nooks.

Don't have an e-reader? You can also access books on your smartphone via the Kindle app, Apple Books, or Google Books.

However, an e-reader will seriously upgrade your reading. Having tested the best e-readers, I think the Kindle Paperwhite is the very best out there. It's just the right size, has a matte anti-glare screen, and is waterproof. If a tablet is more your speed, go for the iPad Mini. It's similar in size to a Kindle but gives you all the perks of streaming or gaming on tablets.
