What if Summerween existed long before Gravity Falls ever gave it a name? This week on The Halloween Podcast, Lyle and Meghan explore the evolution of spooky summer fun by comparing vintage Halloween-inspired products with today's growing collection of Summerween merchandise.
Lyle takes a nostalgic journey through the history of forgotten favorites like Goosebumps beach towels, Goosebumps Fan Club merchandise, camp horror books, Little Tikes Scream Beams flashlights, and the classic Super Nintendo game Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts. Meanwhile, Meghan highlights some of her favorite modern Summerween creations from talented Etsy artists, showing how today's makers have transformed the idea of spooky summer into its own thriving celebration.

Top Five Summerween Merch! | MiniSode

For this special Summerween edition of Haunted Thursday, we travel to one of Utah's most infamous haunted locations: St. Anne's Retreat in Logan Canyon. Originally established as Hatch Camp in the 1920s before becoming a Catholic retreat, the property is now known for stories of a ghostly nun, shadowy apparitions, eerie voices, and unexplained encounters around its abandoned swimming pool. In this episode, we uncover the documented history of the retreat, separate fact from folklore, explore the origins of the haunting legends, revisit the infamous 1993 incident that brought national attention to the property, and examine why St. Anne's Retreat continues to captivate visitors nearly a century after it was first built.
This episode also includes a brief clip from the KSL TV report, &quot;St Ann's Retreat - Hatch Camp - Nunnery - Is Up for Sale 2025.&quot; You can watch the full report here:

Summerween is here!
In this special episode of The Halloween Podcast, we’re looking at the history of Summerween, the growing love for Halloween in the summer, and how a fictional holiday from Gravity Falls became part of real pop culture. We talk about where the idea came from, why fans connected with it, and how the desire for Halloween outside of October has turned into real events, merchandise, social media trends, and summer celebrations across the country.
We’ll also look at the bigger picture of Halloween in the summer, from horror movies, campfire stories, haunted attractions, and spooky summer nostalgia to the way fans now use Summerween as an excuse to bring pumpkins, costumes, candy, and creepy fun into the hottest months of the year.
