Franklin TV: All Hallows Eve

Oh, to be a tiny ghoulie again.

by Pete Fasciano, Executive Director 10/26/2025

As nights of October 

conclude the world over

the last of them, All Hallows Eve. 

mini-ghoulies and ghosties 

collecting their mosties

of candies and goodies received.

With neighbors indulging 

wee tykes with bags bulging

from trick-or-treat running amok. 

perfecting, collecting,

their candy protecting

while stoking their Halloween luck.

Franklin TV: All Hallows Eve

Candy calculus done, 

just don't hesitate, run

to the next doorbell to yell,

"Trick or treat!".

And what do I see 

leering right back at me?

a new ghostie in an old sheet.

A Halloween staple 

for kids who are able

to cut out two eyes from the cloth.

Two minutes, and done 

some will add to the fun

with black markers to amp up that goth.

 

House twenty, a tip-off 

their 'Fun-size', a rip-off.

Why don't they have big candy bars? 

House thirty, amazing

The kiddies all praising

Those 'King-size' from Hershey and Mars.

However, their siblings 

and parental nibblings

all eat away at their largesse.

Our tiny tots thinking

"My treasure keeps shrinking, 

and nobody wants to confess."

(Sigh!)

 

And – as always –

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for listening to wfpr●fm.

And staying informed at Franklin●news.
