Overview

Award-winning picture book now an award-winning animated short film featuring narration by Mister Sam Shearon.

Alistair Gray loves Halloween.

When Alistair Gray attends his school Halloween carnival, he is disappointed to see his favorite night of the year has turned more silly than scary—all treats and no tricks.

But when he wanders alone into the dark the night before Hallow’s Eve, Alistair meets a spooky new friend that teaches him the holiday is about fun and fright…and that there’s more than one way to celebrate Halloween.
