It's nearly Halloween and Abby has gone off to visit the Museum of Natural History in New York with her dad and her best friend, Bluey the little stuffed animal. They're looking for an extinct creature, but with the magic in the museum, maybe the creature is looking for them too.

There are many tales of monsters throughout history -  stories that come and go. But, in the Scottish Highlands, there is a legend of a creature whose first recorded sighting in the sixth century A.D. has only grown larger and gained more interest as the years go by. When we asked our listeners what stories we should tell this season, the single most requested tale was that of... the Loch Ness Monster.  Prepare to hear about the origins, hoaxes, and possible explanations for everyone's favorite cryptid on this episode of Unspookable.

 Only laughter remains for Winella's leaf list to be complete. But how does she bring laughter to the tree? And which of her allies is brave enough to face the frost fairies by her side? Perhaps a certain tiger with a mischievous sense of humor could help.

The lonely Prince is fed up with the Queen and her court! Their snobby standards are keeping him from finding someone who cares about connection over social status. Enter Wilhemina, the rain-soaked and mud-covered girl who makes a mess of a first impression, but ultimately proves that true friendship is more than a popularity contest.  

PARENTS, TEACHERS AND HOMESCHOOLERS: This story is about friendship and making connections with the people who see you and appreciate you for who you are. There is an opportunity for great conversations about popularity and how it feels to be excluded.

Writer Ronald L. Smith takes us on a trip down south, to the backwoods of Alabama, where a young boy was born with a heart-shaped birthmark, the mark of magic, or Hoodoo, according to his grandmama. Hoodoo must learn to tap his inner powers of magic to battle evil. Veteran public radio journalist Brian Watt is celebrity reader. Ron Smith just won the Corretta Scott King/John Steptoe New Talent Award from the American Library Association for "Hoodoo."

===================

Albert Apeinstein is the world’s smartest chimpanzee. One day, he decides to escape from the zoo… only to stumble onto a Halloween block party! Everyone thinks he’s just a kid in a very realistic chimp costume, so he fits right in. Albert learns that if you speak the magic password, “Trick or Treat?” (which comes out sounding like “Ooh-ooo-ah-ah!”) people will give you candy. Lots of candy! But when Albert encounters a lonely little girl handing out bananas, he decides to help make her house the most happening habitat in the neighborhood. Because as much as Albert loves candy, he goes bananas for bananas!

And stick around at the end of the story where we’re joined by special guests to help us introduce next episode’s Whatever!

Thank you for tuning in to this spooktacular special! It’s a fun, exciting, and magical tale of tails- about a pair of young raccoon-type twin dogs living on Dogland. This story can be listened to without having listened to our serial episodes in Seasons 1&2, but it is also how we are choosing to kick off Season 2. Although the story has some mild suspense and Halloween-adjacent fun, it is mostly fun and silly and meant to delight young listeners (age 4+) and old. It will lift your spirits and give 'em pumpkin to talk about!

We wrote the song that plays at the end of our episodes along with Hank’s Granny,  aka Jean Murphy! The song is called “Howl-o-ween!” We took story inspiration from A Tale for Halloween by Loretta Ellen Brady from the collection, The Green Forest Fairy Book (1920.) 

Special thanks to our creative partner Jason Roark who records, edits, and designs this show. He also provides original music including our opening theme song, which is sung & performed by him and the wonderful, talented Jen Bernard. This episode featured a bit of Jason's Howl-o-ween version of a family favorite song, In the Hall of Mountain King by Grieg, who hated the song and wrote it to be a parody of the music of the time that he disliked. We love all of Peer Gynt and encourage you to check it out!

This episode's cover art is by Mom Slice and features our original Power Dog illustration by Matthew Hayes.

If you catch a moment, and can follow, rate, and/or review the show, we would be so grateful! It really helps get the word out for our small, indie, mom & pop & pup, family operation.

Here's a quick bit of Halloween fun from Hank's Granny, aka Jeanie Murphy, that we love to play in our home and sing along with as well!

Jeanie played this old traditional song—that she learned and loved from Jean Ritchie—for and with her kids (that's Hank's mom & uncle) when they were little, so it's great fun to pass it along to another generation. We hope you enjoy it, too! If you love old songs and sing-alongs, we hope that you will check out Jean Ritchie!
