The History of Cromtober

Cromrades - we have sad news to share with you. There will be no Wine & Witches episode this year. The Wine & Witches crew did assemble and were excited to record for you, but our recorder malfunctioned. They discussed their favorite Halloween TV specials. It would have been good, and we're sad that it was lost. Another episode given up to the podcast gods, never to be heard by mortal ears. If you're bummed about the lack of Wine & Witches in your life this year, please let them know! We will pass the word along to them!

It is of small consolation, but here we have some ridiculous banter beside the fire. Cromtober is nearly history - and as we look further down the road, we see Karl Edward Wagner's creation Kane awaiting us!

Cromtober 2020- Halloween Traditions, Part 2- The Legend of Stingy Jack

Cromtober 2020 continues with our examination of Halloween traditions. Part two features a discussion about that mainstay of the front Halloween front porch, the Jack O'Lantern!
