Step into the world of spooky fun! Join us as we explore the magic behind Sensational Elora's Monster Month, from its monstrous origins to the community spirit that brings it to life.

This episode features an exclusive interview with Barbara Lee from Sensational Elora, the organization behind Monster Month. She explains how this month-long event celebrates all things Halloween and the "dark side with a sense of humour".

The episode also includes a rare, exclusive interview with a Monster from Monster Month.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• The History of Monster Month: The tradition started when local artist Tim Burton began mounting creepy monsters on buildings downtown Elora, which eventually grew into the huge event it is today.
• The "Monster Spa": The monsters are pulled out of storage in the summer for a "spa treatment," where volunteers repair them.
• Key Events: Monster Month features a variety of activities, including the Awakening, Monster March, Pumpkin Day, and the Soup-Off.
• How to Get Involved: Sensational Elora, the non-profit organization that runs Monster Month, relies on volunteers and donations to support the events and raise money for the food bank. You can find volunteer, donation, and sponsorship opportunities on the Sensational Elora and Monster Month websites.
