So, if you didn’t already know, I am a HUGE Halloween fan. In fact, as soon as September hits, my “watched” playlist across all streaming devices quickly shifts to all things macabre and deliciously spooky. This year, I tried my hand at crafting a story of my own.
I have always been curious about why we carve pumpkins, and throughout my search, I was confronted with captivating tales of a man named, Jack. I wrote, narrated and produced this story. It’s a little long, but if you want some help getting into the most frightfully festive time of year, have a listen and see what you think.
Ladies and gentleman, I introduce you to, a man named, Jack!

Hello,
I’m Matthew
Welcome to the Unfiltered Mind of Matthew Heneghan.
I’m a former Canadian Armed Forces medic (1 Field Ambulance) and civilian paramedic who traded the siren for the pen. After fifteen years on the front lines and a diagnosis of PTSD, I realized that the only way out of the wreckage was through the story.
I am the author of A Medic’s Mind and Trauma and Tea, and the host of the podcast MatthewHeneghan: Unfiltered. This blog is my “fuck you” to the hustle—a space to breathe between the plays and find the magic in the quiet, grit-covered moments of trauma recovery, veteran advocacy, and resilience.
If you’re tired of the “paper value” of society and looking for real-life stories on hitting rock bottom and climbing back up, you’re in the right place. Explore the archives, hear the podcast, and let’s find the space to breathe together.
