The Halloween Tree

On a Halloween night, eight boys are led on an incredible journey into the past by the mysterious 'spirit' Moundshroud. Riding a dark autumn wind from ancient Egypt to the land of the Celtic druids, from Mexico to a cathedral in Paris, they will witness the haunting beginnings of the holiday called Halloween.
