Halloween Podcast with King Diamond

We asked the Danish-born metal legend to take part in a special King Diamond podcast about All Hallows Eve, the night when ghosts and demons play tricks on the living and children celebrate the dead as they travel door-to-door in search of treats. During our 40 minute conversation, we discussed the meaning of Halloween, why children never used to come to his house, how he would like to freak out the conservative parents in his neighborhood, his favorite horror films, who would win in a fight between werewolves and vampires, and how, for him, every night is Halloween.
