Scary Halloween Stories

So, it's All Hallows’ Eve. I am reminded of many events to occur to me on this night. Who else has scary stories for Halloween?

Here are mine:
Two years ago, on Halloween night, after everything was done, I stayed up all night reading Dante's Inferno. About once every five minutes I would have to check, because I was sure there was a demon sitting on the edge of my bed.

When I was but a jr higher, a few friends of mine and I went out. While we were doing our late night Halloween stuff, we were attacked by a bunch of drunk college kids who we caught egging a building. I've never ran so fast in my life.

And this year I might be going to a football (american) game. Scary. I don't understand football, I mostly find it disturbing....

goddamnit, this pisses me off, because nothing scary ever happens to me.

you ever hear of moving night? moving night is referred to by different names here in the states, but in this area it's just moving night. that's when kids run around and snatch people's decorations, smash their pumpkins or jack o lanterns, egg their cars and TP stuff, that kinda crap.

this has never happened to me in my whole life (knock on wood). I was a nerd when I was in elementary and middle school and no one liked me, so there's no reason I got left out then. I was really scary in high school and afterwards, so I can see why no one would have fucked with me.

and now I've got a zillion cute pumpkins on the porch, just callllling to be smashed. I regularly walk around outside in my jammy pants, which are ugly enough to make anyone angry, and my hair in insane sleepy corkscrews, just shuffling. I know I annoyed a lot of people with my "no war" sign in the front window, and people tend to pass that sort of shit off onto their kids. and I don't own an SUV. yet I got passed over again last night.

WAHOO!

I look like a menacing pumpkin all year round.

I can't really reveal the scariest thing that ever happened to me on hallowe'en for fear people will start sending me gift baskets, but I will say it took place beside some active train tracks.

That is scary enough.

The first time I ever tried mushrooms was on Halloween. I came home from the festivities to my freshman dorm room that night, to find my roommate had rearranged all of the furniture. Terrifying.

Kitten, if you really want me to, I could come over and destroy your pumpkins for you.

Trix, I won't send you a basket. But your story sounds amusing.

Wait, ibis, wasit badly rearranged? Reeking of poor taste? Because that is scary.

The football game wasn't terrifying. It was really cold though. Good thing I could get personal with someone there...

Why is it called moving night? I've only ever heard it called Devil's Night... which makes more sense to me...
