Halloween Stories
It was a miserable, icy, evil Halloween night, just like any other
ordinary Halloween evening except that tonight would be much
different. I was fully prepared for the children arrive for the "trick
or treat" part of Halloween. I had three big bowls full of lollies
just for these stupid kids trying to scare me. I had four
jack-o-lanterns alight my, front porch lights dimmed for effect and
the theme song of The Adams family going. It was getting late and no
kids had been but then I heard a group of about 5 or 6 so I got up and
walked to the door with a bowl of candy. Next thing a brick comes
smashing through my window I gave a yelp of fright and heard one of
the goblins say "suck on that you old fool".
I was rather stunned and I promised myself NO MORE HALLOWEEN
CELEBRATIONS!

"This guy is a real jerk, let's do something crazy given that it's
Halloween," I said
"Yeah" the gang all replied.
So I picked up a brick and I threw it as hard as I could aiming it at
his front window, the next thing I heard was a window shattering and a
scream. I then roar out aloud "suck on that you old fool"
And we all fell on the ground laugh ourselves stupid. All of a sudden
his front door opened and in his hands was a shotgun. We panicked and
ran all the way to my house; once we were safe we dumped our lollies
on the ground and counted them. I had 6 lollipops, 3 gobstoppers, and
2 killer pythons and about 50 mars and snickers mini bars. I was
rather pleased with my efforts. After that the gang and I headed off
to bed as we all had an action-packed evening.
HALLOWEEN STORY 3
=================
From the 57 Halloween celebrations I have had this was the scariest by
far. I was waiting for some children arrive for trick or treating.
Within the picture before me, I see myself. I was dressed in all black; black dress shoes, black pants, a black button-down shirt with a sleek black tie, a black suit jacket, black gloves, a black ski mask, and a black fedora to top it all off. I am not entirely sure what I was supposed to be. Was I a mobster, a thief, or even a personification of the night? The date was Halloween and I was sitting on a bench in front of my house, waiting to scare or give out candy to anybody who approached the door. That year, we had not decorated our house as well as previous years; but we still had a few last minute ideas implemented o let people know that they were welcome to approach. There was a rotating red beacon flashing, jack-o-lantern cutouts over the porch light, and creepy music playing loudly. Despite the decorations, not one person came to our house and hardly anyone had decorated for the holiday along my street. I remember feeling disappointment when I realized that nobody was going to¬¬¬¬ come and anger as people walked by our house without a second glance.

Halloween is the time of year that most people loved the idea of being scared beyond belief. But nowadays it’s harder to be genuinely scared because it seems like some people have become accustomed to most horrifying things that relate to Halloween due to the fact that it is the same every year. Nonetheless every year amusement parks use Halloween as a marketing scheme to get people and their friends to come to their horror nights, and spend money on ridiculous overpriced items, which all present the same things; clowns, clowns, chainsaws, and more clowns. Yes we can all agree that clowns are scary, but there has to come a time where the ones coming up with these “horror nights” step back and realize that what they are doing is no longer working anymore. But alas there is someone out there who knows what they’re doing, and it quite possibly could have to do with the fact that they are connected to the movie studio that did invent the horror film genre. But what makes Universal Studios Halloween Horror night so sinister? Universal Studios has a way where they take you out of reality and place you in a horror movie where you encounter many horror mazes, and also by the way they attack your senses in unexpected ways.
When I learned that I would have to do my ethnographic report on what I did during Halloween, I was worried because I live in Turnpike and the most excitement that happens in turnpike is the sound of the garbage truck when it comes to pick up the Wednesday trash. Fortunately something did happen to me and I realized I would not have to write a boring paper of how I woke up and just stayed in my room the whole day. Well the day started off with me waking up and walking to the bathroom to take a shower, as soon as the turned the water on I realized I had left my shower and rather than turning off my shower I stayed in because the warmth of the hot water was too seductive for me to get out and get my towel. In the shower I had my usual thoughts about life, death, and comebacks to old arguments. Afterword I got out of my shower and reached for my toothbrush, which was located in a cupboard behind the toilet, but I grabbed at it too quickly and it fell in the toilet. I stood over my toilet for about five minutes just staring at my toothbrush in the toilet not believing what just happened, after that I started blaming myself for being too impatient. When I was done feeling sorry for myself I went into my room in search of another toothbrush but unluckily I couldn’t find one, so I had to go walk to the local store at around 7:30 in search of a toothbrush. While searching for a replacement toothbrush I realized that not that many people were in the store, I had always thought that stores were busiest in the morning and evening but apparently that’s not true. Once I got my new toothbrush I finished brushing, got dressed and went to catch the 11 to the Transit Center.
“Tis now the very witching time of night, when churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out contagion to this world.” This quote by William Shakespeare accurately sums up many cultures’ feelings towards modern-day Halloween. But where did Halloween originate? While there are several different ideas, the one that seems to be the most popular is that Halloween originated from an ancient Celtic rite called Samhain (pronounced sah-win). Halloween has strong roots in Paganism, which is the cause of negative connotations with Christian religion. Many modern Halloween traditions and symbols started
During our infancy mostly of us (I hope) heard about the fairy tales that help us to imagine unrealistic ways of actions. Fairy tales also help us to think more broadly to solve a problem. We are used to read, listen, or see those compositions that are always written and censored many traumatic aspects to avoid bad interpretations. The majority of the stories are simplified to target lower ages, however, fairly tales can be scary. Sometimes, we do not notice the horror behind those stories. But to a great extent of stories, the fairy tales can be scary. The Shining is one of those fairly tales, where the father tries to kill his family. It is a fairy tale that is misinterpreted; however, the film itself depicts to be a fairy tale.
A couple nights after Halloween, my friends and I thought it was be fun it we went to go watch a scary movie. Some of my friends didn't want to go on Halloween night because they thought it would be too scared, so we went a couple days after. I don't remember what we watched but all I remember is it said it was rated R, and I didn't even get scared of flinch once through out the whole movie. My friend were scared to death, they were hiding behind there hands, hiding behind there jackets, they were even hiding behind me. I just sat there in the movie theater, with a straight face.

Modern Halloween celebrations also extend past wearing costumes. Fun activities such as pumpkin-carving, bobbing for apples, and Pinteresting adorable Halloween crafts or food are also trendy. Jack-o-lanterns, originally created to avert evil spirits, are now used more for entertainment and decoration. Speaking of decorations, some individuals pride themselves on decorating their lawns with inflatable monsters, graveyards, or other Halloween paraphernalia. Another popular tradition is attending haunted houses and going to corn fields or pumpkin patches, especially “haunted” ones. Despite the fact that modern Halloween is more focused on eating candy, dressing up, and hanging out with friends, these are still underlying currents of superstition.
When September ends and October begins, there is one thing on everybody's mind: «Halloween ». Halloween is around 2,000 years old and first originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain; The Celts had rituals to avoid ghosts coming to haunt them, including dressing up in terrifying costumes to scare the ghosts and get together to party on the evening of October 31st. Nowadays, Halloween is one of the biggest holidays along with Christmas. From the beginning of October, people decorate their whole house in the colors of Halloween, wear entertaining costumes and, you can hear disguised children go from door to door to ask for treats as they shout "Trick or treat !". While it is a very a fun holiday
