Hello and welcome to my 2nd story written by... MyLittlePonyTales! :D

Anyways, this is my 2nd story so it might not be the best but I'm going to try and make it the best ever! A Haunting crossed with some torture here and there. :3 I just have this weird obsession with ponies being tortured... But... Never mind that, let's get on with the story! Please fav, follow, and especially review!~~

Twilight Sparkle paced the room frantically, grabbing her wizardy hat with her magic and placing it atop her head. "Ok! Let's see... I've got my costume, check. I've got my trick or treating bucket, check! And I've got Spike, check. Anything else that I might dramatically need while I'm out on the streets in Ponyville?" "Twilight!" Spike, her baby dragon friend called coming into the room. Twilight studied him as he hobbled in wearing his own costume... Which was a dragon. "Whoa whoa whoa! Spike!? Is that really what you're gonna wear tonight!? I mean, you're always a normal dragon every single day!" Twilight explained. "Yeah I know... But that doesn't matter right now..." "Then what does?" Twilight asked raising an eyebrow in confusion.

"Well, you've already worn that costume from last year!"

"I know Spike! Do you really think I could forget how Princess Luna came and all that blah blah blah nonsense!?" Twilight huffed.

"Well... No, but I still think it's kind of cheezy."

"Uugh!" Twilight moaned, opening the door to the gloomy night outside. "Let's go meet the others..." Spike only nodded eagerly and off they went.

It wasn't soon when they randomly bumped into... Pinkie Pie. "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, OH MY GOSH!" Pinkie exclaimed bouncing up and down in a chicken suit. "We had the very same idea!" Pinkie squealed. Twilight and Spike only glanced at each other. "And... What would that be?" The violet unicorn urged. "We wore our very same costumes from last year!" Spike just rolled his eyes. "I bet everypony else did too..."

"Well we'll just have to wait and see..."

Later on that night they soon met up with everypony else, and yes everypony was wearing their same costume from last year except for Rarity and Fluttershy, since Fluttershy didn't even participate in the last Halloween, it was quite obvious.

Rainbow Dash was a shabowbolt, Applejack was a scarecrow, Fluttershy was a bunny, and Rarity wore a... "A what?" Twilight asked again as everyone gazed on with curious eyes. "I wear a clean fresh mattress sheet, with small holes so I can peep out at the world and... Um... Yeah, pretty much I am a ghost."

Everyone chuckled at this when suddenly Spike began belching, and in no time a letter formed in front of them all.

"It's a letter from Princess Celestia!" Twilight gasped, while unraveling the parchment. "Well? What does it say?" Applejack urged.

"Spike. Would you care to read it aloud for everypony?" Twilight suddenly asked.

"Sure Twilight!" Grabbing the letter he began.

Dear Twilight

Sorry to bother you on such a scary and funfilled night such as this but I'd like you and your friends to learn much more about this holiday. Like what is the real meaning of fear and how to concur it...So if you may, I'd like you all to do something daring and explore the old Howlin House at the end of Higgly Road.

Have fun!

From yours truly~ Princess C."

"HUH!?" Everyone gasped simultaneously. "What's wrong?" Spike asked. "That's what she said so... Maybe we should all go check out that freaky house down on Higgly Biggly Road."

"Hold on!" Twilight spoke up, grabbing the parchment and studying it carefully. "How did she know we were all together reading it?"

Spike shrugged. "Maybe she didn't, maybe she knew though that you were gonna meet up with them."

"Yeah... but..." Twilight was suddenly interrupted by a frantic Rarity. "And why in Equestria did she mention that Halloween is such a scary and funfilled night!? I mean, what could be fun going around as a ghost or something scaring little fillies!" At that moment a group of young colts and fillies ran right by them screaming in terror as they spotted Rarity. "Ahh! A ghost! Run!"

Everyone glared at Rarity who only gave an embarrassed smile. "Was it something I said?"

"And... Hold on!" Rainbow Dash piped up. "That's not her usual signature either!"

Everyone gasped once more in horror. "You're right Rainbow! All it says is Princess C, it could be ANY Princess C! It could even possibly be Princess Cadence!"

There was a long pause before Applejack asked. "So are we gonna do this or not?" "I-I don't know..." Twilight began. "I mean, what if it really is Princess Celestia... And if it is, what if we don't complete the task she's given us!"

"I say we do it!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed in excitement. "Exploring a creepy old house and such would be a GREAT Halloween thrill!"

"You know? Pinkie's right! It would be cool to get our blood pumping!" Rainbow Dash agreed, zipping into the sky while fist pumping the air. "Then I say we do it too. We don't wanna let Celestia down do we?" Rarity explained. Twilight sighed. "Ok... Let's do it!"

"WAIT!" Everyone instantly turned towards a shaking Fluttershy. "Do w-w-we all have to g-go?"

"Why of course dearie! You heard Princess Celestia's note didn't you?" Rarity reminded the yellow pegasus. But she just simply nodded.

"We're all in this together sugarcube." Applejack continued coming to stand next to her. "Come on you guys!" Rainbow Dash called up in the dark sky. "Pinkie Pie's half way there already!"
