31-Day Horror Challenge Day Seven: The Halloween Tree
Sometimes you have to take a break from the blood and gore and watch a good, old family style horror flick. As this was my first time viewing The Halloween Tree, I wasn't sure what to expect but I am amazed. Written and narrated by Ray Bradbury himself, what more could you ask for?
In order to save their friend's life, four children meet a very strange character named Mr. Moundshroud(Leonard Nimoy) and get transported through all different times in history to learn about the origins of Halloween. There are mummies, witches, ghosts, and black cats in the mix so any horror buff will be pleased. It all leads up to a very heartwarming and amazing conclusion.
Watch this one with the whole family and it will most likely become a Halloween tradition. It's one of the best Ray Bradbury adaptations out there. You heard me, now go check it out!
