Summer evenings are the perfect time for sharing scary stories around the campfire… but what do we do if a real fire isn’t an option? And what would a campfire be without s’mores? To celebrate the DVD release of Are You Afraid of the Dark?, we’re excited to share this cardboard campfire craft and s’mores recipe!
