The Hallowe'en Pledge

When the world is bathed in moonlight and a cold wind blows leaves against the windowpanes, read "The Hallowe'en Pledge" out loud, letting its liquid language immerse you. But watch the shadows. Reminiscent of both Ray Bradbury's evocative prose and Edgar Allen Poe's brooding poetry, "The Hallowe'en Pledge" tells the tale of an eternal battle between the forces of life and death, and of the unexpected, secret allies that humans rely upon without knowing it. Only a few ever learn the secret, and those few must die. Except, perhaps, for one.
