It was Halloween. Stan, Cartman, Kyle and Kenny were out trick or treating. Cartman and Kenny spotted Butters in the distance; they looked at each other as if they had the same thought. Cartman pointed to a bush and they both hid behind it without Stan and Kyle noticing them. Butters spotted Stan and Kyle and ran up to them.

"Hey fellas"he said cheerfully.

Before Stan and Kyle could answer him Kenny and Cartman jumped from the bush scaring butters. He dropped the trick or treat bag he was holding and ran away. Cartman turned to Kenny and high fived him, then walked over to the butters sweet bag and picked it up. "That was so cruel what you did to Butters" Stan said to Cartman angrily.

"Yeah but you must admit it was pretty funny" Cartman laughed. He then saw Tweek and turned to his friends "Hey why don't we scare Tweek as well"

"No lets do something else than scaring kids all night" Kyle said sternly.

They walked in silence ignoring the houses they walked past, all they could hear was Cartman eating the candy he stole from Butters. They then saw a big dark house coming into view which gave Stan an idea "why don't we go into Hill house and have a scary tour" Kyle walked in front of his best friend and turned to face him "and why would we want to do that?" asked Kyle

"Because I took the tour yesterday with my parents and sister and the tour guide said that there is a ghost who has been searching for his head for over one hundred years"

Kyle didn't look too pleased then he smiled and tried to change Stan's mind.

"We don't have any money we can't do the tour without money"

Stan walked in front then turned to his friends "You don't have to worry about that, the tour guides let kids in for free" Kyle's smile faded "Why?" He asked.

"I think it has something to do with the parents not suing the company if the tours get really scary and scare the kids" Stan stated.

Cartman raised an eyebrow at Stan "Just one question how do we know when to sneak away from the tour to search for this missing head?"

"I know just follow my lead" They started to walk towards the house.

Kyle wasn't impressed "Why can't we have a normal Halloween for once?"

"What do you mean?" asked Kenny putting his arm round Kyle for a brief moment

"Well we had zombies, Stan's goldfish killed people, he also sort of died last year because I didn't charge my Ipad in time" Kyle glanced in Stan's direction and said through gritted teeth "I also haven't forgiven him for making me dig up my grandma just so that we could scare the fifth graders" Stan looked at Kyle sadly "I told you a million times that I was sorry"

Kyle looked at his best friend and saw the sadness which he caused.

"I know that you are. But I would have expected that from Cartman not you"

Stan gave Kyle a weak smile "I know now lets put all those Halloweens behind us and focus on finding out if this ghost story that the tour guides tell is the truth."

They reached hill house. It was a big dark house with lights in a few of the rooms. When the boys approached the door it creaked open by itself, the boys looked at Stan for a moment but seeing that he saw it before they entered the house. What they didn't see was a headless ghostly figure watching them enter.
