2. Plus, a look at the microbiomes of classic Halloween monsters.
3. And we explore “walking dead syndrome” and other spooky glitches of the brain.

"Due to latent superstition, studies have shown that black cats are much less likely to be adopted compared with other fur colors. By adopting a black cat, you may rescue an animal who may otherwise not have found a loving owner. However, some shelters will not adopt-out a black cat immediately before Halloween. Some owners have been known to use them as “living decorations” before abandoning them."
