WHEN THINGS GO WRONG
On Halloween night, two men were walking in the street, and they decided to break into an electronics store. The police had their names because they had broken into many houses. As a result, the burglars appeared at the store as police officers to cheat the owner of the store.
Meanwhile, a couple was scared because they had seen a shadow and ran into the store. When the owner understood what had happened, he wanted to call the police. The burglars were waiting outside, and they appeared as police officers.
The burglars, the couple, and the owner were in the store. While the couple was telling the ‘police officers’ about the shadow, the burglars were thinking about where they could lock the couple and the owner. Suddenly, the lights went out, the shadow appeared again and it looked like a big animal. The burglars got scared and one of them took his gun and fired at the shadow.
Then, the owner turned on the lights and everybody was shocked. The shadow was two teenagers who disguised themselves for Halloween. Fortunately, the teenagers weren’t shot. They decided not to go out on Halloween night again.

STACEY’S SPOOKY SLEEPOVER
One spooky Halloween evening, Stacey McGill and her best friend Kristy were both getting ready for their annual Halloween sleepover. Kristy packed her bag and started walking to Stacey’s house while Stacey was getting their first sleepover activity ready. When Kristy got there, Stacey’s living room was ready for them to watch their favorite Halloween movie. After the movie, they painted their nails, baked cookiesand played video games with Stacey’s brother.
Before going to bed, they decided it was time for their favorite part of their Halloween sleepover, telling each other scary stories. Kristy went first.She told Stacey about a witch that did evil spells. Then it was Stacey’s turn. Stacey had been trying to come up with a really scary story for weeks and she was so excited to finally tell Kristy. Stacey’s story was about a ghost that lived in an abandoned building in their town.This ghost was the man that used to live in that house before mysteriously passing away. Kristy was seriously spooked so Stacey tried to calm her down and convince her that ghosts don’t exist and that it was just a made-up story.
Kristy finally calmed down and they both went to bed, but Stacey was having trouble falling asleep. She was twisting and turning in her bed when, all of a sudden, she saw a shadow in the hallway. She quickly got out of bed and went towards the hallway while thinking if ghosts were real after all. When she stepped into the hallway something touched her and she screamed. The lights suddenly turned on and her brother yelled, ‘’got you‘’. Stacey had never been so scared in her life. That Halloween sleepover was truly the spookiest she ever had.

Mr. Hoop
Dear Diary,
Christmas Day 25/12/1992
Santa brought me a stuffed bunny! My mom didn’t like it… She said that it was creepy, I don’t agree with her, I think it is really cute! When I showed it to my dad, he asked ‘what is his name?’ I named him Mr. Hoop! and now he is my new friend.

TRICK OR TREAT
On Halloween Eve, all the children visited all the houses for trick or treat. There was only one house left. An old woman lived there and the children approached the house. They knocked on the door and a lady with white hair and big glasses opened it. They asked trick or treat and the lady gave them candies and chocolates. She told them not to eat the sweets until it became Halloween.
However, when the children came home, they ate all the sweets. The next day, they felt a bit sick. They searched to find the woman but nothing. Then, they thought to ask her neighbours. The children asked and the neighbours told them that she was a witch and now she was in the forest.
They were looking for her and after an hour, they found the old woman in her lab. They opened the door and her lab was so big and beautifully decorated. The old woman asked the kids < What are you doing here? Who told you that I am here?> The kids said <Your neighbours told us where you are. We want your help because we didn’t listen to you and we ate all the candies and the chocolates and we feel sick now. Can you help us?> The old woman said < I will try to make you a medicine but I need some things from the forest to make it.>
The kids went to the forest and found the things that the witch wanted. The witch didn’t make the medicine but a potion and she turned the poor kids into frogs.
