Twas the Night Before Halloween

A Frightfully Funny Tale from the Taffy Tales Collection!

Everyone knows the story of ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas—but what about the night before the spookiest day of the year? In this delightfully eerie and hilarious twist on a holiday classic, we finally find out what goes bump in the night before Halloween!

When one clever kid realizes their treat bag has vanished, a simple bedtime turns into a haunted adventure. The candy haul is in jeopardy, and there’s only one thing to do: wake up Dad, throw on costumes, and head out to Old Haunted Hill, where the lost bag has mysteriously ended up—caught in a creepy, cobwebbed tree!

Along the way, they encounter a cast of Halloween characters—a witch with a frog in her throat, a monster who forgot his lines, and a ghost who's feeling... emotionally ghosted by kids who just don’t scare like they used to.  Add a dad dressed as an elf, a surprise rescue by mom, and a rogue vampire deflating tires, and you’ve got one howling good time.

A spooky-fun mix of silly scares, sweet family teamwork, and clever rhymes, ‘Twas the Night Before Halloween is the perfect book to share in the lead-up to Halloween night.

Will they rescue the treat bag? Will Halloween be saved?
There’s only one way to find out...

Part of Taffy Tales’ best-selling ‘Twas the Night Before series, this large-format story board book is a modern Halloween classic in the making. Great for a spooky bedtime read—with just enough fright and a whole lot of fun!

Happy Halloween!
