A practical handbook for organizing Halloween festivities provides a compact cultural introduction and step-by-step programs for parties and school entertainments. It gives invitation and decoration ideas, fortune-telling contrivances, parlor games and stunts, shadow-play and pantomime directions, short drills and songs, and numerous dialogs, puppet plays, and carnival or wax-work scenes ready for performance. Numerous jingles, cues, and staging notes accompany each item, enabling modest productions at home, church, or school.
