Best, Joel2005-03-242005-03-242008http://udspace.udel.edu/handle/19716/726Since 1985, I have been interviewed by dozens of reporters from television, radio, magazines, and newspapers. They often ask whether I have updated my research. Therefore, I am posting both my original data, supplemented by my efforts to bring the research up to date. I also list all of the cases that have come to my attention in which children’s deaths were initially attributed to Halloween sadism (in each of those cases, follow-up stories offered a different interpretation), and I am including a discussion of the medical literature’s treatment of Halloween sadism.32339 bytesapplication/pdfen-USHalloweenTrick-or-treatingHalloween sadismUrban legendContaminated treatsOther2018
