Once upon a time, on an all Hallows’ eve, there was a charming little town known for its endearing Halloween tradition. Everyone decorated their houses with festal ghostly motifs and children wandered around playfully, clad in their eeriest costumes, collecting toothsome candies.
In the midst of this town, stood an age-old, seemingly derelict mansion. Strangely enough, this spooky house only seemed to come alive on Halloween. Its dusty windows lit up and a peculiar figure of a lady in white had been witnessed, floating eerily as she handed out oddly-shaped chocolates to joyful trick-or-treaters.
On one Halloween, young Tommy, the town skeptic, dared to poke the bear, refused the mysterious chocolates and boldly asked the spectral woman, “Who are you really?” The lady, with a cryptic smile, replied, “Wouldn’t you like to know!”
Tap! Tap! Tommy was back in his bed. “What a bizarre dream,” he thought, picking his Halloween loot from the floor. But his heart nearly stopped as his hand hit something odd. It was the same twisted chocolate figure offered by the spectral woman.
What remained unanswered was, was that really a dream or did Tommy now share his room with the ghostly lady in white? That’s a mystery the town still ponders upon, especially during Halloween!
