Halloween is also the eve of the Druidic festival of Samhain, a time when the barriers between the natural and supernatural worlds were at their most fragile and when the dead could return and entities from other dimensions could visit the human realm.

Many of our Halloween traditions actually come from these much older beliefs - for example, the wearing of masks and disguises on Halloween is a very ancient practice intended to confuse wandering ghosts and spirits. Of course, we laugh at these superstitions now. We know that Halloween is a time for having fun and that there isn’t any such thing as a night that is evil. Or is there?

If you listen to the stories in this audiobook, you may begin to wonder. These are all true stories of strange and bad things that have happened at Halloween. So many stories of so many bad things that you may start to wonder whether perhaps there is something different about Halloween. Something dark. Perhaps even something evil....

You won’t find any stories of ghosts, spirits, or the supernatural here. These are stories of real people and the strange and wicked things that they do on or around October 31. Listen if you dare, and discover a feast of murder, untimely death, and mysterious disappearance linked by just one thing: Halloween.
