    43 - Spooky Stories for Boo-kish People

    Spooky stories and terrifying old poetry read to you by Anthony, who is very boo-kish indeed.  First up is The Haunted Dock by Clara Le Grand, which was a Spooky Scribbles Writing Contest winner last season.  Spooky Scribbles is a writing contest sponsored by the Library and the Comox Valley Lifelong Learning Center for young writers. Second is Til Death Do Us Part by Tim Maleeny, because long term relationships can be horrifying.  And third is The Raven  by Homer Simpson, ummm.... I mean Edgar Allan Poe.
