Halloween Sadism from Cautionary Tales
Listen now
Description
Here’s a preview from another podcast we love, Cautionary Tales. On Cautionary Tales, bestselling author Tim Harford finds the morals in moments from the greatest mistakes and tragic catastrophes of the past. This Halloween season, he’s exploring “Halloween sadism” – where a stranger puts something dangerous in the treats collected by children. Razor blades in apples. Rat poison in chocolate. That sort of thing. Fantastical reports of trouble pop up every spooky season, but is trick or treating really something to worry about? Or is there a more likely danger awaiting children on Halloween night? Hear the full episode, and more from Cautionary  Tales, at https://podcasts.pushkin.fm/cthalloween?sid=nightmare.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
