HALLOWEEN

It was a dark and cold Halloween night. Patrick and his best friend, Zach, were out trick-or-treting. Patrick was wearing a vampire costume. Zach was dressed as a ghost. They had already gone to all the houses. They had collected lots of sweets for their own bags. They came to the neighbour's house at the corner end of roses Street.
'' I don't want to go to that haunted house'', said Zach. ''It's too strange''. ''C'mon,'' insisted Patrick. ''Don't be such a child. ''Patrick walked up the dark path. Zach followed him behind. They came to the neighbour's door. It was black and old. On the door was hanging a skeleton. Above the doorbell was a sign that read, ''DANGER''.
''Let's go'', said Zach. ''This place is too scary''. At the moment, the door opened with a screeching sound. A fat old woman appeared. Her hair was long and dark. Her eyes were like plates. Her nose was shaped like a pig's. She was wearing a long black dress. On her head was a hat. ''What do you want?'' she asked in a deep voice. Zach was too shy to talk. Patrick managed to say ''Sorry, it was a mistake''. The woman's big eyes shone like stars. ''I'll give you little kids a fine rant,''she said in a voice like a zombie. She held out one of her deformed hands. In it was a broomstick. Then when the woman took a broomstick she simulated that she was running behind the boys, but when the children were scared she finished the joke, and she gave them lots of sweets and the children were very happy with the woman. When the woman gave it, the children ate with the woman.
