Every Halloween, a mischievous little ghost named Gilby lived for just one purpose: to play pranks. One year, he decided to prepare the greatest prank of all, targeting the most terrifying house in town: the old Henderson place.
Legend had it that this ancient mansion was already haunted by a ghastlier ghost named Grady, but Gilby wasn’t deterred. He was determined to outwit Grady and prank the town-folks right out of their Halloween socks.
So, on Halloween Night, Gilby sneaked into the Henderson mansion, letting out spine-chilling wails and preparing to leap out on unsuspecting visitors. To his surprise, though, no one was there. Moreover, he found a note from Grady.
“Dear Gilby, enjoy your Halloween pranks. Consider this haunted house totally yours for a night,” it read. Gilby was perplexed.
The next morning, Gilby was the talk of the town. Somehow, everyone knew about his solo haunting act. Feeling embarrassed and pranked, Gilby realized the irony… He was actually the one pranked by Grady!
Grady, the cleverer ghost, had given his mansion to Gilby for just one Halloween night, knowing it would be the biggest ‘BOO-merang’ prank of all time. And thus, Gilby learned an important Halloween axiom, ‘Specters that spook together, trick forever!’
