Any good, creepy science fiction stories for Halloween reading?
A few that come to mind for me are:
Padgett's "The Twonky" has creeped me out for years. I first read it in
high school. Although the author and title quickly slipped from memory,
the scene in which the protagonist was unable to understand the meaning
of a passage in a book -- even though he understood every word -- stuck
with me across several decades.
Bixby's "It's a *Good* Life" portrays a village living in constant
fear of the whims of a three-year-old. 'nuff said.

Hi Michael,
I always considered Ray Bradbury's "The October Game" as the
ultimate Halloween story.
Cheers,
