I’ve always been dedicated to the idea of this as the time of year for spooky fun. So every year I collect all the spooky, creepy or scary content from the previous year into one place just before Halloween. If you’ve come to my blog in the past year, or don’t remember previous editions, they are “Trick or Treat”, “More Trick or Treat“, “Tricks and Treats“, “This Trick’s a Treat”, “Tricky Treats“, “A Trickle of Treats”, “Tricking and Treating“, “Tricks for the Treat“, “Tricked Out Treats“, and “Tricks and Treats and Such Small Deer“. Horror, death or Halloween-themed columns of the past year included “Day of the Dead 2022“, “Guy Fawkes Day 2022“, “Diary #646“, “Undead Powers“, and a three-part review of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. There are creepy or spooky-fun videos in Links #643, #658, #668, #669, #682, #692, #694, “Tweets for Long Nights” and “The First Tweets of Spring“, and a collection of seasonal links appears below. PS: Have you picked up on the pattern I’m using for the names of my “Throwback Thursday” columns?
- Pleasant dreams.
- “Invasion of the…”
- PSA for the undead.
- Ooooh, so scary, kids!

- Sometimes The Onion is truly inspired.
- A modern version of the “cursed room”.

- Most of these look more like powerful undead or demon lords.
