Halloween Season 2004 is finally here! The air is slowly getting cooler and more crisp in the evenings. I dusted off all the decoration boxes, bought new lights, and finally got my place decorated. This is always my favorite time of year and love the fact my birthday is on Halloween. I have to do some traveling, but when I get back, I promise a fresh batch of new stories and urban legeneds. It's time to start preparing for Halloween. Check back often as we start crawling from our crypts in the dark of night to bring all new tales of terror and things that go bump in the night!
In days of old on All Hallows Eve, the towns people feared that spirits of the departed would return to haunt them.
To confuse and frighten the ghostly apparitions, they would disguise themselves in costumes and carve jack-o-lanters.
They would also leave treats outside their homes to ward off tricks the specters might play.
