Early the next morning, it was a Monday. Manning, as a city, was getting into the Halloween mood, which was three weeks from the Sunday special. People were all around the town, with a few stores having decorated the night before. Everywhere was packed with scary designs. Manning University had not yet gone through the changes.

' happy birthday to me' In the table in front of them is a cake with bloody fingerprints on it. Scraping sounds is heard and it is getting closer to where they are.

Puppets with strings attach to them, the hand controlling them appears first the lower body is next, then the upper body.

I cross my finger behind my back. It's been quiet and odyssey to get Justin's group to attend the fair. Tonight was finally the Halloween celebration and there was a special event there. The place would be all dressed up, and there would be modified attractions like a Haunted House and starting at ten pm they would put a the Elm Street saga on the outdoor theater.

he said in a calm voice as he closed the door behind him. "Unfortunately that does create a bit of a problem." Oh fuck! I knew what was coming next. I am doing your laundry but I am going to have to kill you. What the hell was I thinking coming over to this creepy place?
