A HALLOWEEN PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FROM SCAREDY SQUIRREL!

So, I’m a huge fan of Scaredy Squirrel. He’s adorable and paranoid. Basically, he’s awesome! I thought you all may enjoy this video from Scaredy Squirrel. Yes, it’s an advertisement for his book, but he gives some great tips on being safe this Halloween!

Have a safe and very fun Halloween!
