True to the original film but filled with deeper, darker layers, this book explores a chilling supernatural origin for Michael Myers, weaving ancient Druid lore and the eerie roots of Halloween itself into the fabric of his story. With scenes even more provocative than the film, I’ll be sharing a carefully edited version that captures the terror and suspense of this horror gem—without pushing the limits of decency.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Disclaimer and Show Open00:03:37.276 = Prologue00:14:22.524 = Chapter 0100:25:05.703 = Chapter 0200:36:56.609 = Chapter 0300:46:04.639 = Chapter 0401:06:59.000 = Chapter 0501:19:51.077 = Chapter 0601:35:07.275 = Chapter 0701:41:50.178 = Chapter 0802:16:24.382 = Chapter 0902:21:54.378 = Chapter 1002:53:03.716 = Chapter 1103:11:07.134 = Chapter 1203:29:58.674 = Chapter 1303:54:40.092 = Chapter 1404:16:24.504 = Chapter 1504:44:55.884 = Show CloseSOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…BOOK: “Halloween” the movie novelization by Curtis Richards: https://amzn.to/3NM2TCR, https://amzn.to/3UTkP2DMUSIC: “The Shape” by White Bat Audio: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/WhiteBatAudioWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.
