A Halloween Scarol

By: Costanzo, Marc

Evelyn Goresco hates Halloween.

The owner of a boutique Christmas shop aptly called "Christmas Evie's," she loathes every aspect of Halloween: the gawdy decorations, the haunted houses, the debauched celebrations. She would cancel the entire accursed month of October if she could, just so she could skip right to Christmas, a holiday that celebrates the best in people.

Evie has no patience for the supernatural, so she's doubly angry when her deceased friend and business partner, Marley, shows up at her shop on the morning of October 31. Marley, Evie's best friend since the two were children, explains that Evelyn will be visited by three Halloween spirits, setting Evie on a journey to her own tragic past, her depressing present and an unimaginable future only she has the power to prevent.

More than just a modern spin on the Dickens classic, A Halloween Scarol is the story of a friendship that spans decades of joy and heartache, examining the devastating effects of grief and how it's easier to blame your problems on a holiday than to make peace with yourself.
