Spirit Halloween stores are officially opening for the season, the Warren Museum announces its move to Salem, and Halloween fans are already counting down the days until October 31. This week, Lyle and Meghan discuss Spirit's grand opening, Salem's 400th anniversary celebration, Ozzy Osbourne's upcoming Halloween Horror Nights haunted house, The Halloween Movie Cookbook, and tips for saving money on Halloween candy. Plus, we debut our brand-new Haunt Line segment, featuring listener stories about Ouija boards, cemetery mysteries, local legends, and the question: When does Halloween season officially begin? We also remember filmmaker John Lechago and look back at a dark moment in true-crime history.
