  • In this video, I again try to solve another of Agatha Christie's murder mystery novels - Hallowe'en Party! The book also inspired the recent movie, A Haunting in Venice.

    Gavin makes me want to buy more Agatha Christie books just to keep up with his Slagatha Vlogs 🤭

    • @GavinReadsItAll

    • @carolinejane1702

      He's the only reason I read them and it's so much fun to solve along!

  • @kathleenverhulst4833
    @kathleenverhulst4833 9 місяців тому +41

    The editing, the intro, the costume, I love it all! Also I'll keep reminding you that Crooked house is without a doubt THE book for you to solve, it's completely unhinged.

    • @GavinReadsItAll
      @GavinReadsItAll  9 місяців тому +7

      I NEED to get to that one, it's been recommended lots and I have it, so keep an eye out 👀

  • @humbug6464
    @humbug6464 9 місяців тому +37

    Please do another video once you've seen the film. I swear Kenneth Branagh just drove very quickly past a bookshop with Hallowe'en party in the window and made the film from that 😅

  • @lukacunningham342

    @gsogymrat 9 місяців тому +9

    I've never seen a UA-cam video like this where a reader takes the audience through a book. It was entertaining. I've read all of Agatha Christie's novels, so this was right up my alley. BTW, I had never heard of the game snapdragon before reading this book.

  • @becca_mae_
    @becca_mae_ 4 місяці тому +2

    Throughly enjoyed this series, I hope you return to it.
    I can't believe you got the Ackroud killer!

  • @PokhrajRoy.
    @PokhrajRoy. 9 місяців тому +29

    When I saw this, I screamed because I love the return of Slagatha Christie with the ICONIC costume. Also, I have my copy of ‘Halloween Party’ which I was supposed to finish many times but never seem to lol

  • @CherryCheetah
    @CherryCheetah 9 місяців тому +8

    Like I said before - this book is not one of the Christie's best, but there are worse.
    btw. I think your next Agatha Christie should be either Five Little Pigs or Mrs. McGinty’s Dead.
    Books to avoid (there's nothing to solve and/or they're spy thrillers and/or they're bad): The Big Four, They Came to Baghdad, Destination Unknown, The Clocks, At Bertram’s Hotel, Endless Night, By the Pricking of My Thumbs, Passenger to Frankfurt, Postern of Fate

  • @drezdendolla.9143

    I hope your Slagatha series continues, I've enjoyed these so much! I recommend Sleeping Murder, A Murder is Announced, Cards on the Table,Dumb Witness and Crooked House!

    Slagatha is back at it again !! Love these little Agatha Christie mystery solving videos, they’re always so fun !! Love hearing the process you go through to get to the final conclusion ! Was glad to see you were able to solve it this time !! Last time had me laughing so hard during the reveal when you were shaking the book 😂 awesome work as always !

    @emryborge7027 2 місяці тому

    This is why it’s so frustrating for me to read murder mysteries, and christie in particular, I’m either wrong about who the killer is, and then I’m frustrated, or I clock them from the very beginning, and then I’m doubly frustrated.

    • @mintyxx1
      @mintyxx1 9 місяців тому

      I hated Hallowe'en Party too! They lean too hard on young juvenile boys, on purpose, because at the time Agatha wrote the book they were a "problem." I'm sure this book was a hit then, but it did not age nicely at all.

  • @SidariYumanara
    @SidariYumanara 9 місяців тому +6

    @sylcathay 7 місяців тому

    Great work! Though as others have pointed out, Halloween Party isn't one of Christie's strongest (she was nearly 80 when the book came out, & it shows). Without going into spoiler territory, the books she wrote in the 1930s-40s period are generally solid, and the Poirot ones probably match your whodunit format best -- they usually have more obvious "denouement scene coming up, all clues have been laid out, final call for solution submission" vibes to them, because Poirot is a drama queen. :)

    @malloryr4883 9 місяців тому

    This is the first Agatha that I called almost immediately. I've read probably 15 or 20 of her books? And I agree with you, it did not feel as triumphant as I thought. A little bit too easy in my opinion. Also your costume was amazing as usual!!

  • @AndiBfishbowlwoman
    @AndiBfishbowlwoman 9 місяців тому +1

    I actually DNF'd this book, partly because of everyone's horrible attitude about the death of a child. It was like "Oh, she was obnoxious, no wonder someone murdered her." I'm very glad "being annoying" isn't a legit defense! 😂

  • @ces7423

    slagatha is back !!! these days ive fell down a rabbit hole of ytubers solving agatha christie books and i really like you the most.
    (not really to compare or anything....but i am comparinng) you lay out the facts and points very well. like for some others they do those read alongs but they rlly dont say (?) enough facts that could make u guess. but u!!! it's so detailed that i can actually catch up and even guess who the killers is by just the facts u give!!!!! i really enjoyed this one (and all your other vids)! happy early halloween!!! stay slaying slagatha!

    A Haunting in Venice is completely different from the plot of this book! It starts off with a Halloween Party but then completely moves on in a different direction!

  • @ghosthallgremlin
    @ghosthallgremlin 9 місяців тому +1

    so unbelievably excited for this! because before the went to see the film i read the book and tried to solve it. i'll be surprised if you don't to be honest, atleast in my opinion its' painfully obvious. but also how big is the text in that book? my copy is only 187 pages, and it's "pocket sized".
    edit: i just realized how mean my comment might sound if you don't solve it...which is not how i mean it at all. you've absolutely solved books that i didn't.
    the beauty of watching so many people solve a novel is getting to see how different people's brains work, and what clues they pick out ect.
    okay back to watching the video now

    I literally can't read a word that Agatha Christie has written because she was such a blatant racist and was extremely antisemetic (non hyphenated per IHRA standards), but watching your videos is as close as I'll get to even knowing what her books are about, and it is so much fun to see you read and guess.
    My daughter and I make a snack and put you on the big screen. You are one of the only BookTubers that I watch who puts THIS much effort into your videos, and of course there's space for every type of entertainment, I just wanted to let you know that it doesn't go unrecognized. It's astounding. 😊 LOVED you as SlaGlenda 😂
