Trick-or Treat-or-Die (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE)
Mon, 13 Jan 2025
On Halloween night in 1957, a group of children ran towards a brand new house in a suburban neighborhood outside of Los Angeles, California. This house had some of the best decorations on the street, and the kids all hoped the house would have the best candy, too. One of the children knocked on the front door, and a middle-aged woman in a witch hat and her husband opened the door and told the kids how great all of their costumes looked. The wife handed out a huge handful of candy to each of them, and they all said thank you – the candy really was as good as the decorations. The kids, giddy with excitement, ran towards the next house. But none of the kids saw the person in white make-up, red gloves, and a mask pulled down over half of their face quietly watching the woman in the witch hat talking to her husband in the doorway. And as the husband and wife walked back inside their house to restock their candy bowl, they had no idea this Halloween was about to turn truly horrifying.For 100s more stories like these, check out our main YouTube channel just called "MrBallen" -- https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallenIf you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @mrballenSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On Halloween night in 1957, a group of children ran towards a brand new house in a suburban neighborhood just outside of Los Angeles, California. This house had some of the best decorations on the street, and the kids all hoped the house would have the best candy, too.
One of the kids knocked on the front door, and soon a middle-aged woman in a witch hat, along with her husband, opened up the door and told the kids how great all their costumes looked. The wife gave out a huge handful of candy to each of them, and they all happily said thank you. Candy really was as good as the decorations. The kids, giddy with excitement, ran towards the next house.
But none of the kids noticed the person in white makeup, red gloves, and a mask pulled down over half of their face, quietly watching the woman in the witch hat talking to her husband in their doorway. And as that husband and wife walked back inside their house to restock their candy bowl, they had no idea their Halloween was about to turn truly horrifying.
