For creepy reading, I would like to add this (very well written) two-part series by Kathryn S.

It’s about stairs, which are very spooky when you really stop to think about them.
Happy Samhain to White Nationalists everywhere and especially to Irish White Nationalists, because we were the first trick or treaters (although the Germanic perchten did more or less the same thing, to be fair, but in December).
Hearing the voices of the dead is what we do here at Counter-Currents.
They have a lot to say.
I would add City of the Dead (1960) to the Halloween horror flick picks. It was released in the UK originally but came to the US in 1963 as “Horror Hotel.” It has a British cast doing convincing American accents. The only American in the film is the actress Venetia Stevenson who plays the character Nan Barlow.

Halloween I noted in our very tidy suburban/urban neighborhood many kids were trick-or-treating, having fun, led by parents, and it was a very happy scene, reminding me of my childhood. Also some yards had people sitting there with bonfires burning or portable ovens. I was told they were celebrating Samhain, where fires were lit to celebrate the end/beginning of the new year.
