Abbey is back from maternity leave! This month we're discussing everyone's favorite Halloween film (don't deny it!) Trick 'r Treat (2007).

Specific triggers for this episode: child death, menstruation, having or not having children, post-partum depression, caring for the elderly, vaccines, autism, elders in peril, and children in peril. There are also sirens going off in the background at one point which may be upsetting for some.
