Episode Synopsis

A MERRY HALLOWE’EN! (as stated on a treasured cat-in-a-pumpkin mug my sister gave me years back!)It’s one of the most wonderful times of the year! Let us dive into American Halloween circa 1919 with Ruth E. Kelley’s Book of Hallowe’en—-then wallow in the atmosphere of Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. And for the final goody in our treat bag, we swing back to Ruth Kelley for three poems, ALL titled “Hallowe’en”!! NIFTY. Sit by the fire…roast some apples…chug some candy corn! Here we go!Opening Song performed on the Daisy Rock Pixie Acoustic Guitar—-minus high E string!The Book of Hallowe’enhttps://publicdomainreview.org/collection/the-book-of-halloween/The Legend of Sleepy Hollowhttps://bookssnob.wordpress.com/2010/10/12/the-legend-and-the-reality-of-sleepy-hollow/https://ex-puritan.ca/blog/washington-irving
