Halloween Fiction Cooperation: The tale of Thomas Braum.
Rules are simple. Each of us can add to the tale. Write if you are genuinely interested in the story. Don't belittle anyone, only constructive suggestions are allowed. And don't purposefully add mindless dribble into the story.
I will start...
Thomas was 8 years old. Halloween was his all time favorite holiday. He loved dressing up as his favorite ghoul or monster. Trick or treating was something he always looked forward to. And he enjoyed the school parties held this time of year.
It was 6 in the morning and Thomas's alarm went off. Time for school. But today it was okay. Today was Halloween party day. He pulled himself up out of bed and he could already smell the sausage and bacon sizzling downstairs....

HE CHECKED HIS HALLOWEEN COSTUME ONE MORE TIME BEFORE GOING DOWNSTAIRS. HE COULDN'T WAIT TO GO TRICK OR TREATING AFTER SCHOOL! THEY WERE HAVING A PARTY TODAY, BOBBING FOR APPLES AND CARVING JACK-O-LANTERNS. HE TOOK HIS PILLOW CASE OFF OF HIS PILLOW, TO USE FOR COLLECTING CANDY. AS HE LEFT FOR SCHOOL, HE GAZED ONE LAST TIME AT THE HALLOWEEN DECORATIONS ON HIS FRONT PORCH. TONIGHT THE JACK-O-LANTERN WOULD BE LIT, THE CANDLE FLICKERING IN THE CRISP NIGHT AIR.

As he walked down the street, he could smell that definitive autumn smell of burning leaves. He was already on spirit overload. As he walked down grimer avenue towards his school, he couldn't help but look over at the old house.

He went toward the old house, so he decided to enter the old house. He has seen nothing, but some old creepy furnitures, fireplace, tables, chairs, ancient books, old photos and everything like been left there for long time. Then he searched every room to room, and there he found Countess Elizabeth MacBath's room! He snooped around, he also found some of the jewelries in a box, then he took it off with him. After he left the old house, he went straight to school.

HE GOT CHEWED OUT BY THE TEACHER FOR BEING LATE, SO HE SAT IN THE CORNER WITH A DUNCE HAT ON. ALL THE WHILE, DAYDREAMING OF THE UPCOMING FESTIVITIES. HE YEARNED FOR THE BELL TO RING, SO HE COULD TAKE FLIGHT IN TO THE AUTUMN AIR, AMONGST THE OTHER COSTUMED TREAT OR TREATERS, AND COLLECT HIS HORDE OF GOODIES (AND MAYBE A ROCK OR TWO!) HE MOST OF ALL LIKED THE CANDY COVERED APPLES THAT OLD MRS ROSSI MADE EVERY YEAR. MAYBE A LARGE CHOCOLATE BAR, INSTEAD OF THE WHIMPY CANDY BARS THEY HAND OUT NOW.

It was in math class that he saw her.
The teacher was talking about 'the new math', and he happened to look outside.
Right in front of the long high row of classroom windows was an old women in a black dress. She was very thin.
She was staring right at him.
She made no move towards him. She was in fact, totally motionless.
She would only stare.
It was a cold look. Like someone about to step on a bug.
He would have liked it better if she had been angry.
But she just had that cold cold stare.
It upset him almost as much as that long black dress. No one should be wearing a dress like that.
Tommy, the kid beside him caught him staring out the window, and asked what he was staring at.

Towards the latter part of the day, Tommys teacher let him out of the corner so he could particpate in their Halloween party. He should have been into it but he was not. He just kept jingling the jewelry around in his pocket, and thinking of the creepy old lady.

HE DECIDED TO PUT THE OLD HAG OUT OF HIS MIND , HE DIDN'T WANT HER TO RUIN HIS HALLOWEEN.
VISIONS OF TRICK OR TREATING KEPT DANCING IN HIS HEAD. PUMPKINS, BLACK BATS, ALLEY CATS, WITCHES ON BROOMS.
GRIM REAPERS, SKELETONS, SPOOKY OLD TOMBS.
THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT ARE HEARD AND SEEN,

As he cleared his head a gentle hand touched his shoulder. It was her. He couldn't believe it. The prettiest girl in the class had touched him.
"So...what are you dressing up as for Halloween Tommy?" asked the girl.

"A ghost?" she asked. "Isn't that a little old fashion?"
"Sure, that's why I want to be a ghost. It's an instant classic. No one wants to be a ghost anymore." He explained.
"Interesting. That makes sense. I'm going to be Farrah Fawcet." The girl answered.
"Who?" Tommy asked. The girl laughed.
"Farrah fawcet was a 70's diva. I'm going as her."

Tom was so surprised that the girl was giving him attention that he couldn't even remember her name. Suddenly the teacher called to her,
"Allysa, is that your coat?" the teacher asked. Allysa walked towards the teacher and Tom was in heaven. He forgot all about the ghostly individual that had watched him from afar. He even forgot about the jewelry in his pockets.
