Goodnight Monsters

Halloween monsters may be the stuff of our nightmares. They may scare us, they may intrigue us- some of us name our pets after them.

But  as we say goodnight to our seasonal friends, it may be a good idea to remember humans may not have fangs, or bolts in our necks or claws but we are after all part of the same family- that concept is wonderfully stated by Vincent Price in the movie ” The Monster Club”

So in a way our Halloween Monsters are always with us-even if they are just out of sight and hidden in the shadows.

Songs from Halloween Past

From the ‘novelty’ Halloween  music files, here are some unusual tunes from Dickie Goodman

Richard Dorian Goodman, known as Dickie Goodman, was an American music and record producer born in Brooklyn, New York. He is best known for inventing and using the technique of the “break-in”, an early precursor to sampling, that used brief clips of popular records and songs to “answer” comedic questions posed by voice actors on his novelty records. 

It’s Their Halloween Too

My Mom- who is not a ‘pet person’ by any stretch of the imagination used to encourage us to include our cats and dogs in the holiday celebrations.

She said, ” It’s their Halloween/Christmas/fill in the holiday here -too.”

So our pets got to have birthday parties, holiday dinners, they got presents when for the same holidays we did and they even celebrated Halloween with us- catnip was their treat and they only got it during Halloween because it made all of my cats psycho with he exception of one.

In that spirit, I dug around for some fun Halloween clips of cats and dogs to share and I hope you find them as fun to watch as I did.

I tell stories bout how my dog Hamish Macbeth hated yard out so much that I actually had to train him to not bark at it. This must be a Labrador thing- check this out:
