The Charles Halloween Short by Pree Dammond

The Charles Halloween Short by Pree

Charles Suave was 8 years old when his mother allowed him to participate in the Halloween Activities. Charles knew that this would be a great experience for him because it was something he never did before. He wanted to wear a one of kind unique costume so he asked his grandmother Sara to help him shop for one.

Now, Charles did not come from a wealthy family, in fact his family was in deed poor. Sara knew how important it was for a child to be involved in social activities so she sought out to help Charles find a costume that would truly be one of kind.

Sara thought of the old lady on the corner. The old lady on the corner had no name. No one knew where the old lady came from or where she was born. The old lady was a mystery neighbor who lived in an old cabin down the street. Sara heard that the old lady gave away costume to the needy.

Sara took Charles to the old lady’s house the day before Halloween. As they approach the house, you could tell that the anxiety and uncertainty of what was about to happen ran through their veins. Sara rung the door bell, but heard no sound. Charles asked Sara, why get a costume from the old lady? Why not from the store? Sara replied I’m sure the old lady will have something unique for you.

The Door opened with a screeching noise. Charles and Sara saw no one in the door way, but as they looked down they became aware that a costume with perfect measurement was before their feet.

Charles grabbed the costume and as he held it up to his body the door slammed shut. Both Sara and Charles quickly pursued the comfort of their home.

Charles was so excited about having a costume, he ran up to his room to try it on.
As Charles began to put the costume on he began to have weird feelings in his stomach.

Something was extremely wrong…
