from The Halloween Podcast · host Lyle Perez
This week on The Halloween Podcast, Lyle and Meghan take a nostalgic trip back to the Scholastic Book Fair and the spooky shelves that helped shape a generation of Halloween fans. They look at the history of the fair, the excitement of choosing your own books, the unforgettable covers that drew kids in, and the way ghost stories, monsters, and haunted houses made Halloween feel like something you could enjoy all year long. Along the way, they share personal memories of Book Fair days, childhood reading struggles, books on cassette, playground ghost stories, and the titles that stayed with them long after the fair packed up and disappeared.
