Once upon a forgotten Halloween night in the mystical town of Crowsville, young Finn was dared to spend the night in the infamous deserted manor on Creepy Crawler Lane, renowned by locals as the spectral dwelling of a spine-chilling ghost named Ethel.
With a churning stomach and heart pounding like a drum in his chest, he stepped into the eerie mansion. Mysterious whispers all around, but Finn bravely fought his fear and moved on, until he started feeling a cold, uncanny presence behind him. Gulp. It was Ethel.
The phantom ominously pointed towards a dust-laden clock. It struck midnight and Ethel started to change. Her ghastly form shimmered and then, Bang! Ethel transformed into a… bouncy orange pumpkin!
Finn couldn’t believe his eyes and then it hit him, it was indeed Halloween, and Ethel was stuck in an eternal pumpkin curse that only lasted until sunrise! Floored, he spent the rest of the night jovially with Pumpkin-Ethel, even managing a game of pumpkin toss.
As dawn approached, Ethel morphed back into her wispy self with a sly smirk, waved him goodbye only to return to her eternal Halloween cycle. Laughing, Finn exited the manor, leaving the town’s folks flabbergasted. The scaredy-cat had out-partied the Crowsville’s spookiest resident.
