Okay! So this post is almost five years old, as i posted this on the 27th of this month.

Update! I have found a few more Halloween 78 records. I bought Wayne Kings-Swamp Ghosts, have a copy of The Vampire dance characteristic by Sadero’s Band on Edison Diamond Disc, and just bought a copy of Haunted House Blues-Bessie Smith on, Columbia. So, I guess some perseverance and determination is paying off.
