Episode 38 - Halloween Hijinks
Episode 38
Monday, 14 October, 2024

In early 20th century America, Halloween was a time for unruly tricks, delicious treats and all sorts of "hijinks" in between. In this spooky episode, Sarah dives into how folks celebrated this anticipated (and dreaded!) holiday in a unique wartime setting. Festive, cursed recipes are brewed up with mixed results and we hear a haunting recitation of some chilling Halloween poems from 1942. victorykitchenpodcast.substack.com thevictorykitchenpodcast.com Music used in episode via Uppbeat: "Friendly Ghost" by Danijel Zambo and "Creepy Crypt" by Albert Behar.
