Children's Halloween Adventure

There was only one rule: don’t open the door. Fortunately, most people respected this rule. According to legend, a witch named Sarah Grim Reaper lived in that house until her death after being banished by the locals for casting evil spells on several residents.

Although this witch was fortunate to die a natural death and wasn’t burned at the stake or drowned since witches can’t swim, she remained bitter until her last day on earth.

Unfortunately, on Halloween night, a group of adventurous kids carefully planned to approach the farmhouse and open the door despite the warnings of the neighborhood's older residents. The plan was hatched over several weeks, as they planned to enter the farmhouse at midnight on Halloween to magnify the effects of their actions.

Some young children would have nothing to do with this plan, but others cheerfully prepared for this adventurous opportunity. As the moment approached, the group slowly approached the notorious farmhouse door and opened it.

What Happened?

As they opened the door, they noticed the temperature inside the farmhouse plummeted by 40 degrees instantly! The sudden chill sent shivers down their spines, a clear sign that they had re-awakened the spirit of the witch, who had been biding her time for decades. The room's atmosphere was now charged with her vengeful energy, a stark reminder of the consequences of their actions.

For the children, the options were stark and clear: either flee the premises and seal the door shut, or step into the witch’s domain and face the unknown consequences of their actions. The tension in the room was front and center as they carefully weighed their choices!

Some continued to walk inside while the others ran away as fast as they could!
