A8– Halloween Night
On Halloween night I went over to my best friend Spencer’s house. I got there at Five-O-Clock and left at about Eleven-Thirty. We had an awesome time. When I got there we carved pumpkins and skateboarded. I was dressed up as dead Billie Joe Armstrong and Spencer was an evil jester. Next we went inside and played Spencer’s Wii.
Once it was dark enough we started trick-or-treating. We trick-or-treated in five different neighborhoods, covered about 3 miles, and got about ten pounds of candy each. When we were on the fifth neighborhood we heard the sound of a car rumbling in the darkness. When the automobile got closer we saw that it was a van with all blacked out windows and a sign on the side that said “Free Candy” on it. We picked up speed and then turned the corner. The van followed us. We were at full speed running when Spencer pulled me behind a bush. Thankfully the van rode right by us. Once it was out of sight we took a shortcut through the schoolyard.
Suddenly we heard a piercing scream behind us. I ran so fast that when we were running up the stairs I tripped and fell on top of my bag of candy but I got up and kept running anyway. Once we got safely back to Spencer’s house we played the Wii a little bit and then went into the band room and started rocking out. We were playing along to our favorite songs(I was playing the electric guitar and singing and Spencer was playing bass and singing) including Poprocks and Coke, Brain Stew, 21st Century Breakdown, and Before the Lobotomy. Going to Spencers was a blast and I hope to do it again.

I love your Halloween story Ethan! It sounds like you had a much more exciting Halloween than I did! Do you still have any candy left?
Love,
Dad
