This anthology isn't working for me so far. Weak tea for me.
‘Twas the Night of All Hallows by Geraldine (1865) 3 stars. A short poem about how Halloween used to be in olden days, I think.
Vermudyn’s Fate: A Tale of Halloween by R. Fryer (1884) 2 stars. A story about a missing miner and the legend of a white witch. There was a good build-up of dread but an amazingly lame ending.

Out of the Night by Elizabeth Phipps Train (1889) One star. A young woman is inhibited from marrying for mysterious reasons only resolved on Halloween night. Another lame ending that completely dispels any supernatural promise. 😒

Hallowe’en by John Mayne (1780) This poem is written with a Scottish brogue and, unfortunately, I can’t rate it because it was too hard to read. My bad, I know.
Halloween by Robert Burns (1786) Same thing. I struggled with the brogue so no rating.
Hallowe’en or A Tale of Terror by Revi (1807) 3 stars. Short but sweet poem about a Scotsman who wanted to cast a spell to force a woman to love him. Doesn’t end well.
