The hour begins with Creepy Man, a children's story told around a campfire.  Then we'll visit an even creepier teen-attraction in Yellow Springs, Ohio called The Blue Hole.  Our travels then take us to old Japan to hear Promise Broken, Curse Unspoken.  Finally, our last destination is a terror-filled road trip in the family car.  The journey ends there... on Eyeball Bridge.  

WYSO Public Radio and The Yellow Springs Tale Spinners have conspired to spin one dreadful and disturbing tale after another!  With each story, the fright level increases!  The hour is also highlighted with the music of Mannheim Steamroller and The Yoshida Brothers; making this a unique Halloween feature for your station.
