Mothman’s HAPPY CRYPTID HALLOWEEN (CRYPTID HOLIDAY CLASSICS #2)

8th Circle Press (Forthcoming August 6, 2024)

When Halloween is threatened by bad weather, only one moth can save it.

It’s Halloween, the biggest day of the year on Mothman’s farm. Schoolchildren from nearby Point Pleasant are scheduled to arrive all day long to pick their own pumpkins...until it begins to rain.

By the time the skies clear, not only have the kids’ field trips been cancelled, but it’s too late to even go trick-or-treating. The day is officially declared the Worstest Halloween Ever (in the Entire Universe).®

Mothman, however, has a plan to make things right. With help from his fellow cryptids, he’ll give the kids a holiday they’ll never forget.
