Haunted Bookshop is one of my favorites. In fact it would be my desert island blend if I could only have one blend to smoke. I have a tin of the cake version I plan on mixing 50/50 with C&D Pirate Kake to make Matches860's Haunted Pirate Ship for spooky season this year 
I am a hardcore burley lover. So I do like HB a lot, but there are other burley blends and flakes I prefer. If someone wanted to trade some HB for a latakia blend I have, I wouldn't turn down the transaction 
Age is kind to it. I just tried C&D Riverboat Gambler and it is kind of in between Haunted Bookshop and Old Joe Krantz.
I really enjoy haunted bookshop along with old joe krantz and Pegasus.
I smoke more Haunted Bookshop than any other blend. I can't get enough of the stuff. Love it!
I haven’t tried it and doubt I will. I’ve tried Pegasus and OJK and they weren’t for me.
Haunted Bookshop was one of the first few tobaccos I smoked. And the first one I really "got". I think it's because I was/ am coming to pipes from cigarettes. When pushed, HB gets quite cigarette-ish. When slowed down, it's much different. That bit of cigarette helped me learn to smoke, I think.
And with a few years in a jar, most of the rough edges are gone and I've found the flavors mature wonderfully. Well worth the space in the cellar.

I’ve been slowly working through a 5 year old jar of Haunted Bookshop and Old Joe Krantz, both rounded out beautifully but I’m partial towards HB. I’m going to get a pound to put away.
I like to have OJK occasionally and always have a tin on hand, but HB is my go-to tobacco that I enjoy every day. It's my favorite choice for the first smoke of the morning.
