All in Happy Halloween
'The Pumpkin Giant' is an outstandingly silly tale of the origin of the pumpkin, and the perfect beginning to Halloween week!
I'm a huge fan of traditions, and one of my absolute favorites is our annual reading of 'The Legend of Stingy Jack'. There's something about the Devil getting tricked and our "hero" Jack still getting what comes to him that makes this story almost perfect.

The ghost in 'A Misfit Ghost' is exactly the kind of specter you'd like to come across in real life. Pretty much the exact opposite of 'The Phantom Hag'.

This week I have two new ghost stories for you, as well as our annual telling of 'The Legend of Stingy Jack'. Our first tale is a properly creepy ghost story from a small town in France.
