TRICK OR TREAT! In this spookiest of mini-sodes, Irish listener Meadhbh (rhymes with “Dave”) shares the origins of Samhain (rhymes with “Rose McGowan”) and some Irish Halloween traditions. Then, Julia hopes to clear up any confusion you may have with old-timey Hollywood horror actors. Later, enjoy a double dose of quizzes: “The Nightmare before Halloween” and “Scary Movie Monsters”!
