While time slips by, another year has passed and the leaves begin to change from their various shades of green to the vibrant colors of autumn rust. On a dreary moonlit night the children share scary stories of the local lore of the living dead stalking the living, werewolves mutilating and devouring livestock, evil scarecrows with glowing eyes hiding in the cornfields, murderous possessed children, the old creepy abandoned house where vampires live, sounds of witches cackling in the cursed pumpkin patch where the gourdsmen stand guard of their king.
These tall tales sound like poison candy fever dreams, but it is said on Halloween when darkness falls and the veil between our world and the netherworld is the thinnest, these “stories” come to life and the evil from the underworld awakens only to transcend our world into darkness and to create more tales of terror and mayhem.
