Once upon a Halloween night, in the small town of Spooksville, a little ghost named Boo was preparing for his big haunting debut.
Boo was nervous. The idea of scaring people really scared him! But Boo’s father, Ghoulio, whispered from his grave, “You have to make us proud.”
With a slight shudder, Boo started his terrifying journey. He creeped dramatically into the town. Finding an old house full of children, he flew in with a spine-chilling “BOO!”
Imagine his surprise when instead of screaming with fear, the children erupted in a cheerful, “Happy Halloween, Boo!” They were excited to see him, not scared!
Turns out, the children had mistaken our little ghost for a kid in a very realistic costume. They marveled at his fabulous “costume” and offered him chocolates.
Boo returned to his grave, confused but happy. He didn’t have to scare anybody to be a good ghost! He just had to be himself and enjoy some good Halloween fun!
And so, the moral of our story is: Sometimes, what you’re afraid of is not as scary as it seems, especially if it comes bearing chocolates!
