Dark Halloween (Quick Bites, #5)

by Leanbh Pearson

Halloween brings to mind Jack-O-Lanterns, Trick or Treating and costumes. All Hallow’s Eve is the liminal time when the veil between worlds is thinnest, when the dead and living are closest…. Dark Halloween is ten stories and images of reimaginings from different cultural traditions, legends and folklore from around the world. Come on an adventure through shadowed woods, haunted houses, dark crossroads and where the difference between tricks and gifts are hard to discern. This is Halloween as you’ve never known it.
