Small Frights: Halloween Magic

Small Frights: Halloween Magic

Author: Lucé Tomlin-Brenner October 7, 2022 Duration: 50:56

This episode is all about enjoying small moments and creating your own joy. We explore how to find Halloween magic even while you're grieving. We get a fantastic party idea from Tom the Grimtern, get some spooky music recs, and take a call from a Lantern who has a lot of Halloween heart, but low Halloween funds. Can you celebrate on a budget? Heck yeah, ghouls!
