Celebrate Halloween with this week’s roundup of tales. Angie starts us off with her favorite ghosts said to hang out at the Tower of London. She shares the stories of just her favorites (Guy Fawkes, Anne Boleyn, the princes in the Tower, Lady Jane Grey and her husband Guilford Dudley, and Sir Walter Raleigh).

Then if you’re looking for reasons to give up sleeping ever again Theresa regales us with SUNDS (Sudden Unexplained Nocturnal Death Syndrome) and the Origins of the Freddy Kruger franchise. This frightening story, based on several true stories explores the unexplained deaths of 117 Hmong refugees in the early 80s and how they inspired the invention of the serial killer haunting the dreams of teenagers in suburbia.
