THE BLOOD BATS OF GANTZ PARK (Part 1): A Grove City Halloween Story| #MicroTerrors
On Halloween night in Grove City, Ohio, Lucy Buxton's dad drives her and Shawn Dyer to Gantz Park with two flashlights and a thirty-minute limit, so they can look for the Blood Bats, which legend says come out only on this one night of the year and trace back to Archibald Rhysand, a Union soldier who was rumored to eat bats on the battlefield. Two teenage boys got to the park first that night, with a pair of pumpkins and a handful of firecrackers, and their car is still sitting in the lot.Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

It opens in Andrea Cordle's backyard, where the Grove City Messenger writer is brushing off a caller's push for a werewolf article when a howl rises from the tree line and something large gallops after her to the back door. From there it follows Sean Dyer, a homesick boy dropped off with his Uncle Curtis and Aunt Jade for Halloween weekend while his parents close on a new house in North Carolina; the town is under a sundown curfew that no adult will explain, and a police officer sends Sean and his uncle home from Tammy's Pizza on Broadway before dark. The next morning the TV news reports that a beast crashed through the front window of Skylark's Toys and Comics and attacked owner Darren Neff, and at the Grove City Visitor Center, Teresa Breckenridge quietly tells Sean that people all over town have seen a giant wolf walking upright on two legs. By Sunday a second attack has made the news, police are urging everyone to stay indoors, and Sean takes a fifty-dollar job helping Reese, the friendly neighbor with a dog named Bongo, clear out his cluttered attic.
