Halloween Stories

This past Wednesday was Halloween and I found myself sitting on the front porch with a bowl of candy. Sitting there waiting for the trick-or-treating to begin I started to think about going house to house as a kid and how much fun it was.
I remember that there was one house that was extra creepy every year during this holiday. Walking up the driveway I noticed these solar lights that appear in Catholic graveyards. The house was covered in cobwebs with a single purple light on the porch. There was a tape playing scary noises and a motionless witch sat with a bowl of candy. There was a sign that asked for us to take only one piece of candy. My friends and I looked at the witch and decided that she was stuffed or a prop and went to take a piece of candy. She grabbed me by wrist and I lost it running all the way down the driveway. That was the most excitement I have ever had trick-or-treating.
Tell me about an adventure or memory that you have had.
