What do Sam Cooke, Stagger Lee, Tom Dooley, and The Twilight Zone have in common? They all take us into the strange, dark world of murder ballads—where love, jealousy, betrayal, and death become songs passed down through generations.

This Halloween, turn down the lights and listen closely. Some songs tell stories… and some stories refuse to stay buried. 👻🎃

Join me as I ramble, rant, and play a game of Halloween Trivia!

I might cuss just a little so watch your baby's ears! Ain't nobody got time to edit today! You're getting this WHOLE, loud Southern accent and vernacular!

Also, catch how I said I'd tell you there are 2 things that make halloween/trick or treating fun--then didn't! LOL! Actually I did, but I got totally caught up in the sauce and lost the plot!

NOTE:

*The song I reference from my Mom, actually went this way:

"Jack-o-lantern don't you know, when you are LIGHTED your crooked teeth will show."

And, by the way, The National Confectioner's Association didn't produce that doggone candy corn, LOL!

This is not sponsored! I bought this deck and I'm playing with it.

Today, we're talking about the autumnal equinox, the science, historial tidbits, and the supernatural.

Harvest moons, ghosts (or haints) and wise women abound!
