Halloween At My Place
I don’t know about you, but on Halloween I open my house to an array of spooks, ghouls, vampires, zombies, and all varieties of mega-monsters.
The young trick-or-treaters (and their parents) who pass my place seem to be caught between fear and grief, between terror and tears. Because I don’t just give out goodies, oh no, I offer up monstrous fare of all sorts, delivered by the fiends themselves! 
For example, Satan wanders the house busy at buying souls and offering up his Devil’s chili. Now this chili is HOT, so hot that it will make your fingernails sweat, and your belly button pop out like a meat thermometer.
And in the corner of the living room, the Ghouls & Zombies have opened up their version of a ‘Subway Sandwich’. Their motto is Eat Flesh! I have to admit the finger fries are quite tasty.
In our Witches Cauldron we have good old hot apple cider. You drink enough of this, it will naturally send you into a diarrhea panic. And if you want leprosy, then just lick the leprous toad that croaks beside her.
How about a brain freeze? Well, look no further. Similar to a slurpee, the monsters offer frozen brain puree that you drink out of a skull with a hollow bone. And if that’s not chilly enough for you, Dr. Frankenstein is performing ice-water enemas in the bathroom. Brrrrrrrrr….I get a chill just thinking about it.
Other great going-ons are the wet marshmallow fights sponsored by the ghosts. Man, I tell ya, when you throw one of these babies, they’ll stick to anything: walls, skin, and hair. And for the carnivore in you, Spam melon balls work just as well. (Uhh, well we tell ‘em they’re made of Spam  ).
So, if you want a real treat this Halloween, come on by my house and be horrendously horrified. I put the ick in icky, the awe in awful, the sick in sickening, and the dread in dreadful.
Happy Halloween!

I am getting great feedback on my short horror story: "The Mouth of Evil" and if you have a moment I was wondering if you could check it out.
Thanks,
-Mikey (Reclusive Knight)
 Sure Mike, I've featured it in this newsletter. Enjoy!

hi, bill--
lovely newsletter! i can't agree more about immersing readers in sensory description from the get-go. good point well-taken in any genre, but particularly in horror, where suspension of disbelief is so critical to the story's success.
and thanks again for highlighting my clown poem--what a treat!
 You're most welcome Laurie. Happy Halloween!
