The leaves are changing again, ushering in the fall season with their golden brown color. The smell of pumpkin spice wafts through the air as the days grow cooler. Ghosts and ghouls reign supreme, hidden amongst the mortals of the world. And the tunes! Oh, the tunes that fill our ears on these dark nights... These are the true delights of the month of October!
