Mister Glow-Bones and Other Halloween Tales

De: Ronald Kelly

Narrado por: J Rodney Turner

From the introduction:

Halloween is more than a holiday; more than a fun time of candy and costumes for the young. It is inoculated into our very being at an early age and there it remains. As we grow old, it grows dormant… but it is still there. For the lucky ones, such as us, it emerges every year, like a reanimated corpse digging its way out of graveyard earth to shamble across our souls. And we rejoice… oh, if we are the fortunate ones, we most certainly rejoice.

So listen and celebrate our heritage. Blow the dust off the rubber mask in the attic and hang the glow-in-the-dark skeleton upon the door. Light the hollowed head of the butchered pumpkin and string the faux cobweb from every corner and eave. It’s Halloween once again. Shed your adult skin with serpentine glee and walk the blustery, October streets of long years past. And, most of all, watch out for misplaced steps in the darkness and the things that lurk, unseen, in the shadows in-between.

Super nostalgic appreciation of the way things were in the 60’s with safe fun spooky Halloween… not slasher gore dripping cult movies… aahhhh the good old days… hurry and write more please

Fantastic Halloween Book

This is my 3rd Ronald Kelly title I have listened to narrated by the very talented J. Rodney Turner. Mr. Turner's voice reminds me of Matthew McConaughey or Sam Eliott.
Great Collection of Halloween & creepy stories.

If you have not done so already you have to go get The Halloween Store -By Ronald Kelly and Narrated by Mr. Turner
Love the Nostalgia of Halloween of the 60's and 70's, Although, I was not born until the latter half of the 70's. Many of the things he talks about reminds me of when Halloween was more of a simpler and safe time.

About time!!!

Finally!!! A collection of short stories that capture the imagination! Clever, frightening and thoroughly entertaining. I would love to see some of these on screen.

Monster fans of the 60's and 70's

Ron Kelly's nostalgic love of old horror movies, universal monsters and vintage Halloween is right up my alley. Enjoyed the short stories and memories. I'm sure we would have been fast friends had we grown up in the same small midwestern town. Excellent!
