Hello Super Great Kids, happy Halloween!
To celebrate this big storytelling day, we're giving you not one but two stories.
This is the second of two scary but not too scary stories.
And if you're an Owlet, we're giving you two more Super Great Scary Stories,
plus a bonus story so settle in and prepare to enjoy being thoroughly scared.
The story you're about to hear is a little bit scary
because it has a small hairy creature called a bookah in it.
And it's a little bit sad at the beginning because there is a death in it.
It's a very good listen because it's brilliantly told,
and the storyteller is the wonderful Daniel Morden,
who told you the Wizard of Abergaveny and Hey Ho, amongst other stories.
Now, just before you hear the tale,
could you have a think about the best scary story that you've heard and why you like it,
while we have a quick word with the grown-ups?
Ready?
Off you go.
