Boo!  It’s a Monster Mash of spooky subjects on this week’s special Halloween episode of GenX Stories. The gang dives right in with haunted houses, fuzzy blue dog costumes and of course, candy corn!  If that’s not creepy enough, check out the bite size versus full size candy debate, hear stories of shooting 8 lb pumpkins down 53rd street (and over to NJ), and get our grown-up take on 2020’s scary impact on Halloween.

Oh and for those wondering if passing out candy is still an option this year, Chris suggests a trebuchet or a t-shirt cannon to shoot candy from your doorstep. 

Either way, we say have fun, buy all the candies 50% off and don’t forget to ditch all your hidden wrappers
