“Who’d a thought that within the sweet, gentle persona of Juli lurks a powerhouse pianist of demonic dimension? Last night we found out…Brava, Juli Draney! We loved our Halloween treat…If I were still writing for the Statesman, you would be famous…”

-Mike Winter, Stars of Steinway Concert Series founder; Official Cliburn Competition critic; former Executive Director, Boise Philharmonic, after a debut performance in his home in 2013

“Halloween: Henry, Saddara and the Neighborhood” depicts the colorful scenes of a legendary Halloween night through the eyes of Henry, a rugged, but sophisticated black cat. The story takes the reader to the quaint town of Green Hill. Henry enjoys his human family and the sights in the town on Halloween, but ventures out into the foothills to his favorite place, the haunted Hostetler mansion. Henry experiences many supernatural events on his adventure to the old mansion near the woods, including interactions with and sightings of witches, werewolves, vampires, ghosts, goblins, and zombies. Henry has a dear friend who inhabits the Hostetler mansion, the ghost of a little girl named Saddara. Saddara’s touching story is told in this tale and receives a powerful resolution. Henry somehow escapes this incredible adventure with his life, a scarred ear and wise lessons to impart.

“Halloween: Henry, Saddara and the Neighborhood” is Halloween fun with beauty and wisdom brewed in! This book is also a musical audiobook, narrated by Cody D. Roberts, a storybook piano recital, and a musical theater show, Henry’s Halloween A Rock Opera Ballet!
