For myself and many of us here, this is our most favorite time of the year. I have always been drawn to the darker things. When I was a little kid my Grandpa used to call me “Spooky” because I loved to hear the same ghost stories over and over. Not much has changed, I […]

The first three episodes of this season sure were great, weren’t they? They sure were. Can’t have too many of those episodes in a row, can we? Let’s get bogged down for an episode. I know everyone has been wondering where Beth has been, so I figured we’d get caught up with her at some […]
