Carnival: Rome
Ashley was resting in her bed, thinking about her day. She looked at the pocket watch on the dresser and laughed. Hearing her doorbell, Ashley got up with her cane and made her way to the front door.

The Green Guardian
"Hey, Sarge, look." Hank looked up from his phone and saw that one of the Inmates had raised a scarecrow in front of the leaf pile they'd been making. He was unsurprised to find that it was Jasper. Jasper had always been more of a talker than a worker, and today it was clear that his rake hadn't seen much use. He had come across an old green button-up shirt and stuffed it with leaves, making the body bulge oddly. He'd put a sack head on top to complete the ugly golem and drawn a crude scarecrow face on the front. The whole works had been stuck on top of a broken rake handle and stuck in the ground before the ever-growing leaf pile. It hung there like a silent guardian as the inmates raked their piles closer and closer to the growing mound.

The Dust Man
Tabitha Longheart was something of a perfectionist, keeping all of her belongings in perfect order. Her locker at Liberty High School was immaculate as was her car. Her parents never questioned her habits, although they sometimes joked and gave her a hard time, to them this was simply how Tabby was and would always be.

Carnival: Sarah Is Sick
A nasty storm had swept the mountain range where Teresea’s Home For The Lost was located. A nun named Maria was looking out the window with a teenage girl named Bab. Maria commented how the rain brings life to plants. Bab remarked how rain never does anything except put people to sleep. Maria reminds her that nuns should have a more positive outlook on life. Bab reminded her that she wasn’t a nun, her parents just sent her there to keep her from having premarital sex. Maria went on to talk to her about the power of faith and kindness. Bab rolled her eyes and continued looking out the window. Bab asked Maria if she could see something crawling towards the gates. Maria looked out the window and saw what appeared to be a person crawling towards the gates. Maria and Bab hurried to help.

The Halloween Host
Which Halloween will be your last? When it comes to visit no one knows who the Host's next victim will be. Every Halloween in a small town, the people don't party, they don't trick or treat or pass out candy. They huddle together in their houses, passing whispering prayers to each other in hopes that maybe this time, this year it will spare them all. Every year those useless prayers go unanswered.

Trick-or-Treat
She sat near the window, watching kids laugh and play as they showed off their costumes. Parents lingered, not too far, enjoying the unusually warm Halloween. After last year, parents would never allow their children to be left unsupervised on this night. For a moment, her heart ached as she thought of her brother. Halloween had always been a family favorite: candy, cake and presents all in one night.

Carnival: You're Going To Laugh
Josh woke up in his hospital bed. Staring at the ceiling, he thought about how hard he could hit the floor if he jumped from the ceiling. He smirked at how ridiculous the idea was. Telling himself that he would have to learn how to stand again first. Swiftly deflating himself telling himself, out loud, “Like I have a reason to walk anymore.”

Birthday From Hell
Ruby bellowed and cussed as she was roughly shoved onto a cross and tied to it. And to think- all this because she'd been jumped by some puriteens and had the nerve to fight back- and win!

The Longest Halloween
“Ready to go trick or treating, sweety?” Matthew was standing on the front porch, looking up at his mother through the eye holes of my homemade ghost costume.

Sami’s Review: Hellraiser 2022
I have to admit that I’m not the biggest fan of Clive Barker. The blood and gore focus of horror. But just because its not my cup of tea in terror doesn’t mean I don’t respect what he brings. Since I have gotten into horror movies, his name always pops up for the recognition he’s done for books and movies. I do have to respect that he does bring something new to horror. It’s not just blood and guts flying everywhere it really is a sought out story.

Halloween Costume And Character Ideas According To Your Zodiac Sign
Halloween is almost here. But is your outfit ready? Have you made the inevitably important decision - what will you wear this year? We all dress in Halloween costumes that perfectly define our moods for the season. For some, it is the best time of the year to showcase their inert darkness openly, while for others, it is a mere occasion for getting all dressed up. No matter the reason, we all love it. Halloween marks the darker half of the year. It kickstarts the holiday season. Some people vibe with the Halloween festival, while others (most of us) are waiting for other favorite holidays.

Halloween 1978 is a true classic
When people look back at certain genres they all have instant classics that come to mind. Horror is no different as the slasher era has gone on to redefine what it means to be a horror film. A few films had inspiration over that change but perhaps none more than Halloween in 1978.
