---- Previous Notes ----
This week on Haunt Weekly, we're not actually talking much about haunted houses and instead are looking at one of our holiday traditions: The Anti-Christmas Playlist
Our Anti-Christmas playlist is a (nearly) 20-year tradition that started on burned CDs for our car and has grown to a mammoth YouTube playlist with over 80 tracks and 4 hours of music.
For the first time ever, we're opening that list up to you and the world, you can view it here: https://tinyurl.com/antixmas2020
If you want a guide to that list, well, that's what this episode is all about!
