We have some unfinished Everyday Folklore 3 Day Challenge business today, but first, Happy Halloween! And later on at dusk, Happy Samhain! May all your turnips turn back mischief.

If you like it, please leave a review/rating on your favourite book site to encourage others to check it out too. And if you don’t, well I still hope your turnips keep you safe tonight!
