Last Halloween I went trick or treating in Armstrong St. with my cousins and step cousins. John (my cousin) was wearing a vintage Batman costume, every Halloween he wears Batman; I don’t really know why because his favourite superhero is “The Flash.” He had a belt that had Batarangs, fake flashbang grenades, and pockets; every time I was near him I would sneeze, it could be an old costume. On the other hand my other cousin, Justin he wore a Spider-man suit my personal favourite superhero, it had those cushioning that makes it look like he has abs and biceps. One of the step cousins (forgot her name) was wearing a minion costume, the little yellow aliens from “Despicable me”; it had little hairs at the top of it, she had a belt that had the letter “M” on it I’m pretty sure it meant minion. I’m only going to be telling one more costume, because there are so much of them that came over, my other cousin Rahnier he was wearing a vampire costume, it was a very cool costume because it had a suit that had a tuxedo his makeup looked like he was Dracula and the fake teeth would “glow in the dark” that’s what the package said and they did.

When we were going out to trick or treating my cousins mom had to say “goodbye and stay safe” then she kissed them goodbye; while we were walking to the first house the step-cousins were talking about “who is he?” they didn’t know because I was wearing a mask while they were talking I was giggling and had a smirk on my face because they were still wondering about who I was, when we were walking to the other neighbourhood to get more candy we saw two teenagers trick or treating too, one of them dressed as a Jester and the other was Wolverine. The Wolverine costume looked like it was from the old X-men movies, or comics, it had the vintage yellow, blue, and black colours and the belt that had an X on it. There is not really a sophisticated idea about the Jester.

When we were going back home I had to take off my mask because I was sweating the mask smelled like drool because every time I would speak it would spit out my spit it was a little disgusting but it was fine.

At home our bedroom was trashed because our step cousin was snooping around, John was so mad he trashed the room more and we could not go in because he would have killed anyone who would step in there so we waited in the staircases for 1 hour, after he cooled off we played on tablets and that is my Halloween story.

Last year I went to trick or treating with my dad and my brother. First we went to my Aunt house and we ate there, we also played with my cousins, there was a party in my school so my brother and I went to the party and all we did there is eat some food do some games. It was getting dark and it is perfect time to go outside and we wore our costume, I was wearing star wars and my brother is wearing batman. Me and my brother saw some scary costume there is some clown, zombie, and some most scary costume, me and my brother is so excited to go trick or treating for our first time and we came to a house and press the doorbell and said “Trick or Treat” they gave as some candies we are planning to get 100 candies for now we have 7 candies each that means we have 14 candies all together. My brother and I went to the another house we have to go in the house it’s like there having a party and when we went to the house the light kept going on and off out of nowhere they jumped scare my brother and I after  we passed that we took some candies and run off, we were walking and we so a person trying to act dead so I went closer then he scared me by the way he was wearing  like a dark costume then he knows my cousin and he gave us extra candies now we have 30 candies. After we went trick or treating we watched scary movies the movie is called scary movies part 2 it wasn’t that scary though it was made in 2000 that was my most memorable time in my life.

It was a foggy day with rain drizzling over our heads when I came towards a small abandoned house with my mom and sister. We passed the house with the tall grass and headed toward another. I saw stones as big as hockey pucks with engraved scratch marks, although, I stopped for a moment because I suspected something strange about the house, but then I walked away with the feeling that there were eyes following me. I smelled the scent of fear when I came across a bridge and heard a distant strident noise like if you were to drag your nails down a chalk board. I saw a gate but not whatever was behind it. My mom and sister didn’t really seem to notice nor hear anything suspicious. As I passed the long grey-stoned bridge, I realized that part of the bridge was broken and that the noise has stopped like something or someone made it stop. I continued walking through the cement road and avoiding the red wet metal railing.

I got a little hungry on the way to next house so I opened one of my pink wrapped candy and ate it, it tasted like a sugary sensation layered with chocolate. Almost like if you have a cup and add marshmallows and chocolate. Even though it tasted splendid I figured that I should save it so that I will still have some food left for when I come home. I had to carry my pumpkin bucket everywhere and I felt moisture running down my skin and my hands started getting sweaty because I wore long sleeves with sewed on bones looking like two spinal cords attached to my black suspenders and front and back of my cotton leggings. I felt the wind running through my back and rearranging my black and white covered cape in front of me.
We passed the same creepy house I saw earlier that day, I started feeling a little petrified and un- sure about what was happening. I was vigilant of everything around me. After a while I remarked that I haven’t talked to my mom or sister in a while, so I evoked them but they ignored me and kept walking. I put my hand on top of my sister’s shoulder, but I didn’t think she felt a thing. I ran up in front of them and saw that their mouths were sealed and their eyes shut, they weren’t talking and they were callous and quiet. 1 second out of disbelief we were on the stone bridge near the wet red railing. I stopped all of a sudden and dropped my Pumpkin basket to put my hands on my face and think about what had just happened. Out of the blue, my mom and sister stopped and turned around to face me, their eyes peered open and their lips parted. “You stopped walking” was their first response I answered by saying nothing so that I can hear what else they had to say. They started to walk towards me, so I started to run away through the same long straight road.

That moment was intense for me; I went back and gazed at the house I saw earlier. As I invited myself in, someone with grubby gloves put their hands over my shoulders, covered my mouth and shut the door quietly. He uncapped his hand from my mouth and faced me. He didn’t have a name but when he was about my age he was stuck in the same timeline which never changes. “There were others before me, although some were caught outside this house and were taken somewhere far away by eccentric people, and the others well… they died out of their age.” Pointing at the skeletons with rotting little flesh left at the corner of the room. I couldn’t help but stare and touch the ancient walls. He looked like somewhere near his forty’s, I started to get a little sad for him and his life in this place.

“There is a gate somewhere near the bridge where you can exit this situation but there were spirits wandering there”. I knew that the second I’ve walked outside the door that there was no turning back. They spotted me in the corner of their eye; I looked behind me while I started running and fell down a steep cliff, I could only smell the dirt as there were specks of it left on my body. As brown thorns pierced my skin I laid on my back in the mud half alive looking at a blanket of stars. For what felt like a year I woke up on my bed with my parents and siblings staring down at me. They questioned me for a while, but I never bothered to tell any of them what happened.

One day Before Halloween Night mom, Suri and I went to by my costume for Halloween right after school. I was so excited when mom, Suri and I went to buy my costume, Suri and I    saw this store called BUY COSTUMES only children’s sides “I was like mom that is the perfect store to go buy my costume and it even says children’s sides only” Suri laugh. At that night I invite Suri to sleep over, we watch lots of scary movies and we prepare or costumes for HALLOWEEN NIGHT. After we woke up we dress up and my mom even paint our faces we looked so scary and funny that me and my friend couldn’t stop laughing we. We had waffles for breakfast it was so yummy that we ate about 4 of them, they tasted as good as ice cream. My mom called Suri’s mom if she wanted to spend the night together while we were away.  Suri and I were so excited to go that we wait on the door for 30 minutes while my dad was getting ready to. Suri and I grabbed our buckets to get candy’ Suri looked my costume and she said it was very spooky, I told her that hers was spooky too. At 7:00 pm we went out and saw lots of different costumes like dolls, clowns, and star war costumes and of course many more.ME and Suri got lots of candy, Suri and I smell popcorn did not know why. We knock in lots of doors to get candy they were so yummy just like the waffles that we had for breakfast. We heard lots of ring bells, screaming and people talking or saying trick or treat it got pretty annoying for me but I still did not get used to it. After we got home we were so tired and at my dreams I hear lots of trick or treat.

When I go trick or treating I always hear a deafening sound of fireworks like it is Canada day! I see lots of scary costumes. At first I thought my costume was scary because I accidentally poured juice on my penguin costume and it looked like blood. But then I realised it didn’t really look cool. My sister started lecturing my about how my costume was for babies, But I really couldn’t take her seriously because she was wearing a “My little pony,” onesie. I see lots of horrifying costumes in Halloween, but the most petrifying thing I saw was a clown. The clown was covered in blood with ripped places throughout his body, He was also holding a machete. The clown Started chasing me and my sister and I swear, my life flashed before my eyes, it was so scary that I peed myself just a little. It turned out the guy in the petrifying costume was just returning my sisters Samsung phone that she dropped. I was so relieved when the clown stopped chasing us, it felt like a hard rock was lifted off my shoulders.

I could always smell the candy/chocolate from a mile away. That smell is always the most satisfying smell ever. Whenever I go into a haunted house there is always a bowl that says to reach into it. It feels very weird and slimy, it is like seaweed and mud combined, and it just makes for a very unpleasant experience!

I like Halloween because I get to stay up late and eat candy!

I usually go with my friends or my dad, my sister sometimes takes me to her neighbourhood to go trick or treating. This very cold year I’m going as a Poke-Mon! One night it was as cold as winter snow at night I knocked on one door and the door flew open! I was as scared as a cat is to water I ran before I said hello, I got home and the candy I earned from that painfully long night was worth it. The candy tasted so good like warm chips in the summer. Rewind before I ran away I ran into a real spider web! It felt like a fishing line!! I did not like the feeling I hated it to be exact! There was a real spider in the spider web! I saw it fall to the ground like rain. That was probably the most crazy Halloween ever!

I like Halloween. First it is so much fun and at night time people treat you by giving you delicious candy. Someone might trick you, but after they will still give you candy. In class, we will make a scary pumpkin and bring it home. Maybe, we will watch a movie! So I like Halloween a lot. Also we are going to the haunted house. When we get candy I will share it with my family and friends. I still remember on the night of Halloween, kids screaming and shouting. But they all said “treat or trick’’ to get candy, and I smelled the blood it was made of sugars. I could also smell smoke from the fireworks and a little bad smell from someone’s house. And I can smell the delicious candy from my candy bag. And I also saw some people wearing a creepy costumes like a bloody vampire.

   It was night, not knowing what time it was, probably around 7:00. I glared out the car window, seeing the dark eerie night. Only the lampposts and car nights as our source for light. We got out of the car, approaching a neighbourhood that I’m not familiar with. I was very tired, so I wasn’t very optimistic about trick-or-treating. The scent of sugary sweets filled the air, excited screams of children filled up the area, waiting impatiently to get their mouth stuffed with candy. I didn’t care that much about the loud screams. I began to walk down the path with my group of friends and families, in my costume. I guess I was wearing some sort of raccoon costume. A dark black dress with grey fur at the hem, with a matching tail, fluffy like a sheep’s wool. On the top of that, I got a raccoon hat with little ears.

We walked down the side-walks of the neighbourhood as a group. Each house is decorated with varieties of spooky glowing pumpkin, sparkling lights and hanging pictures of skeletons, ghosts and zombies. Most of the houses contains a sweet treat for the excited children, the other houses were closed and the people living inside it just went to bed. We arrived at the first house to go trick-or-treat.

The first house was decorated in an array of orange and black lights as if the house was a Christmas tree. It looked kind of odd with the bright white house paint. I assume it has a second floor, it was quite tall for a one floor. I don’t know why, coldness just swept over me. Maybe it’s the wind, after all it’s night. I pressed the doorbell. It was a cold, flat silver surface. A man with a skeleton mask opened the door. He took of the mask and grinned. He took out a bright orange pumpkin bucket, which contains an array of snickers, smarties, m&ms and other things. He told us to grab 2 types on candy. I chose the smarties and lollipop. He closed the door and we just continued walking to the next house.

In the end, back at our house, we ended up getting around 100 candy. A sweet aroma filled the room, chocolate, caramel  and other assortment of scents of sugary treats. My bag look like a pot of rainbow soup, ready to be eaten. I put my hand inside, all I felt is wrappers.

Last year when I went trick or treating at a Halloween night. It was a cold night, where the leaves where flying like birds from the cold wind. I went to this first house they had a lot of pumpkins. They carved it very well most of them were happy and angry but there were two pumpkins right in there front door. They were evil pumpkins. So I step forwards and pressed the doorbell I was excited for my first few candies. He came out the door and I said “Trick or Treat!” so he gave me like eight pieces of candy after that I said thank you but when I said that he interrupted me and ask “do you want a mask or a scythe” I chose the scythe because if I chose the mask I would scare my sister and I don’t want that to happen, that’s why I chose the scythe. So that was my most memorable moment last Halloween.

Tonight is the night that all the kids have been waiting for. The sweet smell of all different kinds of candies fill the air. Little children running around the dark street, passing terrifying decorations fill their front yard, knocking on stranger’s doors, giving them free candy. You know how parents always say. “Don’t take candy from strangers?” Yeah, well there’s a holiday all about it.

As my friend Theresa, my little brother Nicco, my mom, Theresa’s mom and I walk down the rough sidewalk. We walk past houses, with more Halloween decorations we could ever afford. Theresa’s mom drives us on top of a hill, where rich people live. People go to them every year. The gate was wide open. There were lights and cameras all over the front gate. When we got to the front door, they were giving away caramel apples with sprinkled M&Ms on top of it like colourful pebbles. After we got our apples, we stayed outside for a bit and watched zombies and ghosts walk pass us.

As we drive on the dark road, hunting for more candy to fill our little bags, we find a big house that the front was under construction. Only the front though, there were piles of dirt on the front yard. My parents told us to walk up there. Theresa, Nicco and I were too focused to find more candy to even care! The steps to the door were unstable. We knocked on the door and a girl that looked like she was in her 20s. “TRICK OR TREAT!” we yelled. “Oh! Sorry I wasn’t expecting anyone tonight.” We stood there for roughly 5 seconds. “Hold on, I think I have something.” She slammed the door in our faces and came back with Christmas chocolate. We looked at each other, puzzled. We walk away with our bags filled, and shared them with our parents.
