There are witches at the door and goblins in the street! The perfect time to shut the blinds and give your mind a treat. Five pieces of brain candy! Five bite-size videos! Each one served up by “Skunk Bear” (our YouTube science show).
First, fill your gourd with festive facts about a famous squash. Example: Pumpkin once was used in anti-freckle wash.
Razor teeth! A thirst for blood! That’s how this bat is known. But it has a thirst for hugs when it returns back home.
Why do you shiver when you’re scared? What causes skin to crawl? What are “goose bumps” called in Spain? This one explains it all!
The itsy-bitsy spider spins. It weaves a wondrous web. Just like an eight-armed harpist, it tunes each silky thread.
Rats may plague our cities now, but friends it could be worse; A giant rodent (five feet tall) once scurried o’er the earth.
This email’s end is drawing nigh. The wind howls through the trees. But Skunk Bear has more videos with stranger things to see! It’s hallow’s eve, but please believe: no tricks here - it’s all true. So follow them on Facebook. Subscribe on YouTube, too.
