This week on The Halloween Podcast, we discuss the brand-new Resident Evil trailer, dive into Mars' fascinating 2026 Tricks, Treats & Trends Report revealing how Halloween has become a full season, and look at the first-ever television adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie.

We also head Around the Crypt with Goodwill's first-ever Halloween pop-up store, the 60th anniversary celebration of It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, one final season for a beloved Ottawa Halloween fundraiser, and a brand-new Hocus Pocus trolley tour in Salem.
