Episode Details

Hosts Kristin Dilley and Bill Thomas of the "Mind Over Murder" podcast celebrate Halloween with a reading of Edgar Allan Poe's 1842 horror story, "The Masque of the Red Death." This one has it all-- plague, pandemic, death, destruction, and spooky party crashers carrying disease. We will be reading more Halloween horror as bonus episodes of "Mind Over Murder" each Thursday during the month of October. We hope you enjoy.
