In these thirteen tales, you'll find the quaint, the quarrelsome, the sinister, and the spooky:
- A middle-aged housekeeper who loves Halloween a bit too much...
- A plumber whose fear of crawl spaces turns out to be fully justified...
- A newlywed husband who wonders how to tell his wife she wears much too much make-up...
- A mean old prankster who's determined to play one last practical joke...
