There was a story about a Jack - o' - lantern that came to life. A little girl carved a pumpkin for Halloween. That night, she saw a faint glow coming from the porch. When she peeked out, the Jack - o' - lantern had glowing eyes and was moving around. It started chasing her around the yard. She ran back inside and hid under her bed. The next morning, the Jack - o' - lantern was back to normal, but she never forgot that spooky encounter.
A town had a legend of a werewolf that only came out on Halloween. One year, a newcomer didn't believe in the story. So on Halloween night, he went for a walk in the forest. As the moon got higher, he heard howling. Then, out of the bushes, a large, hairy creature with glowing eyes emerged. He ran as fast as he could back to town. Since then, he always stays indoors on Halloween.
One spooky Halloween story could be about a haunted house. A group of friends decided to explore an old, abandoned mansion on Halloween night. As they entered, the doors slammed shut behind them. They heard strange noises, like whispers and creaking floors. In one room, they saw a figure in the corner that disappeared when they looked closer. It turned out the house was once owned by a witch who cursed it before she was burned at the stake. The friends managed to escape, but they were never the same again.
