Summary
In Orangefield, Halloween is never normal - and this year will be no exception. For Orangefield is now the home of Halloweenland, a bizarre carnival run by the mysterious Mr. Dickens. No one who sees the carnival doubts that it's a very strange place, but its real secrets can hardly be imagined.
Orangefield is also the home of Detective Bill Grant, who thinks he's seen it all. He's on the trail of an odd little girl, a girl who could hold the end of the universe in her hand. The trail will lead Grant to Ireland, the ancient home of the Lord of the Dead, then back to Orangefield, where, on what may be the last Halloween, the ultimate battle between Life and Death will take place.

Good
Halloweenland (Orangefield, Book 3) is like a haunted house tour led by a master of spooky atmosphere—Al Sarrantonio takes us back to the creepy town of Orangefield, where Halloween isn’t just a holiday, it's a supernatural showdown. Detective Bill Grant returns to face off with the ancient, pumpkin-loving entity Samhain (pronounced "sow-in," for all you horror newbies), and things get even weirder when a creepy carnival rolls into town. Because of course it does—what's Halloween without a sinister carnival?
Audiobook Review:
The narration for Halloweenland absolutely nails the mood. It's like listening to a campfire ghost story told by that one friend who knows how to get the spooky vibes just right. The narrator manages to amp up the tension with a voice that drips with suspense, especially when Samhain slithers into the scene. The way he delivers the creepy carnival moments will definitely make you rethink your next visit to the county fair.
One of the best things about this audiobook is the pacing. It’s not a full-throttle horror ride, but rather a steady build-up of unease. Think of it as a slow-cooker horror stew: the flavors intensify, the dread simmers, and by the time you get to the finale, it’s bubbling over with supernatural terror. Just be prepared for a few moments where the story takes its sweet time to marinate.
That said, if you're expecting jump scares or action-packed horror, you might feel like you're waiting for a trick that's more treat. Sarrantonio goes for atmosphere over gore, weaving together a spooky, unsettling world where Halloween is more curse than candy.
Verdict:
If you’re into Halloween horror with a side of eerie carnival rides and creepy pumpkin gods, Halloweenland is your jam. The audiobook does a fantastic job of drawing you into the unsettling charm of Orangefield, with a narrator who keeps you hooked through every haunted twist and turn. It's the perfect listen for anyone who thinks Halloween should last all year long—just maybe skip the pumpkin patch this season.
