Once upon a time on All Hallows’ Eve, a group of boisterous children had congregated outside the town’s most fearsome landmark – the supposedly haunted DeMorney Mansion. Their quest was simple; muster up the bravest amongst them to knock on the mansion’s ancient wooden door.
As the debate raged, young Pete, munchkin of stature but gulpingly brave, stepped forward. His heart pounding like a drum, Pete approached the door and with a trembling hand, knocked thrice. The mansion responded with an eerie silence.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, revealing a spooky darkness that would terrify even the bravest soul. The kids shrieked, but Pete, summoning every ounce of his courage, decided to venture in.
Inside, he found himself in a gloom-laden hallway. As he walked further, he stumbled upon a room filled with candies of every kind imaginable. Clutching a few, Pete raced back, breathless and wide-eyed.
Next morning, a commendable amount of candy was missing from the candy store. Locals said it was the work of the candy ghost haunting DeMorney mansion. Little did they know, the only ‘ghost’ was a brave little boy with an insatiable sweet tooth. A old mansion and a case of missing candies…what a sweet haunting!
