Halloween

Again this year, we will not go to any trouble to decorate since the neighborhood kids already think of our place as "The Haunted House."  
Reportedly, the previous owners were slain in their beds by an escaped homicidal lunatic with a hook for a hand.  Parents and kids, hooked to death.   The crime scene was so gory that the county coroner resigned the next day.  

Sometimes at night when I get up to go to the bathroom I see dead people - the ghosts of the kids with bloody hook marks... well, you don't really want to know the details.  

But the ghosts really spook the cats sometimes.  Cats have a special connection with the spirit world.  Come to think of it, the tragedy happened around Halloween back in 1995.  The murderer was never caught and some people think it might have been a vampire.

Hey what's that?   Something seems to be scratching at the door... Oh no.  Its a daemon or something.  Smells like rotting flesh.  Big teeth.  Wants to drink my blood.  I know, silver bullets in gun.  Load.  Cock.  Fire.  Bang, Bang ..Eek,   Argh,  (silence).

Hi.  this is the vampire, the poor pale shmuck is lying, drained and lifeless, on the rug.  Just for the record, silver bullets only kill werewolves.   Hahahahahahahahaahahaha!
