Each Friday I share a curated selection of calls from the All Hallows Hotline and letters from the EEEEKmail bag!
This episode is overflowing with treats (no tricks)! We get feedback from a thrift store worker, learn about what scares (and annoys) one listener when they're watching horror movies, and we take a call from a Lantern who already has their entire Halloween season mapped out in spooky detail. Plus, we get a pillowcase full of chilling podcast, TV, and book recommendations! I'm feeling fully immersed in Halloween spirit after working on this one. I hope you feel it, too!
