Nightshade: Halloween Special 1 Synopsis

In this episode, we proudly present to you four tales of horror and macabre–just to wet your appetite for Halloween. The 1st is an excerpt from chapters 22 and 23 from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. In it, we interpret for you our take on the real horror behind the world’s most famous monster. The 2nd segment is an interview with our very own Windy Renee as she recounts a ghostly experience in an old house in which she lived as a little girl. The 3rd segment is a reenacting of Edgar Allan Poe’s the Tell-Tale Heart voiced as only one who is truly mad would expound it. And the last segment is our original story, Mickey’s Tale. Mickey resides in Primshire, Ireland and has spun his fair share of nonsensical yarns in his days, but as he breathlessly busts into Emmett’s Pub and attempts to warn the patrons there of the horrors from which he just escaped, they derisively groan and make light of what he’s telling them. But is this just another one of Mickey’s zany attempts to get attention, or has something truly terrible come to Primshire? Let’s see who or what has the last laugh… Join us for lots of Halloween thrills and chills and even some laughs in this very special episode of Nightshade!
