Happy Candy Day!

One of my favorite days of the year, for many reasons. Costumes. Candy. Ghosts. What's not to like?

Whatever your take on and participation in this holiday, I hope everyone has a fun and safe day. I thought to celebrate it we could do something a little different. A while back, there were some posts being flung around where people wrote six word stories, trying to be as succinct as possible. I want to resurrect this challenge (in zombie form, perhaps). You all have six words in which to tell a story, but it must be either a ghost story, or some scary, spooky or otherwise Halloweenish tale.

Here's a first attempt:

Haunted house. Stupid kids. Nuff said.

All right, so it's not too scary, but hopefully it can kick-start your imaginations.

I see that skull's grin.
