Overview

Whether you believe in ghosts or not, it's fun to read about them. There are plenty of them here, along with assorted goblins and ghouls—even Dracula makes an appearance. And you'll find out the origins of all the Halloween traditions, plus tips on how to throw a spooky party, make a great skeleton costume, turn your living room into a witches' coven, and lots of other magic tricks, jokes, games, and Halloween fun.
But that's not all. There are lots of stories here, too. Stories about hauntings, witches, wizards, monsters and magic. Roderick Hunt has collected everything you'll ever want to know about this spookiest of holidays. It'll chill your blood not just at Halloween but on all those times when the wind howls and things go bump in the night.
P.S. Look out, he's behind you!
