“Dead grandparents give the worst candy…”
I’m delighted to announce that my Halloween short story “The Ghost of Grammy Goneril” has been turned into an audio-story for Episode 140 of the award-winning YA scifi/fantasy podcast Cast of Wonders. It’s narrated by Christiana Ellis and is a double feature with Natalia Theodoridou’s haunting story “Of Pumpkin Soup and Other Demons.”
The story was originally published in the Halloween 2013 edition of Underneath the Juniper Tree and illustrated by Ken Lamug. It’s about a young witch, Mab Ipswich, who gets stuck at home on All Hallows’ Eve with the ghost of her grandmother, who has just escaped from the netherworld.
You can listen to the story here, or download it from iTunes here (Episode 140).
Happy Halloween!
