"Trick-or-Treat" chimed the young ghouls and ghosts that stood in his doorway.

"Well, given the choice, I say TRICK" he shouted as he slammed shut the door, thus dousing the young children in a bucket of melted chocolate.

moments later there was another knock on the door. Travis sighed as he poured the chocolate back into his wicked trap. He then opened the door, expecting a ghost or zombie, but what he found shocked him.

"Did you do this?" A sassy girl of no more than 16 stood before him, holding one of the ghosts from his previous encounter.

"In my defense, he gave me the choice." Travis chuckled. "No more than a harmless prank." He had no idea why he was defending himself to her, she must have been five or six years younger than him. She was just a kid. So why did she make him feel this way?

"yeah well you're an ass hole" she snorted "you know what they say about guys who hurt children?"

"What?"

"They have a small dick" she snickered.

Despite himself, he couldn't help but smile back at the girl. there was something about her. He just couldn't put his finger on it. He had to find out what was special about her.

"I'm so sorry to have ruined your night like this" he purred, "perhaps you would like to come in, I may have some extra sheets we could use to make a new ghost" What was he doing? Inviting her into his home?

She looked at him with a gleam of curiosity

"Alright, but only because this is Tommy's first real Halloween"

The girl looked around the house, taking everything in. It then hit him that he did not even know her name.

"I'm Travis, by the way." he spoke, hoping she would answer.

"That's nice" She quickly replied, avoiding eye contact. "So who designed your house? someone mental?"

He chuckled at this remark. Surely his house must have seemed insane, everything was twisted in bizarre shapes and sizes, and colored in faded pinks teals and blues.

"Actually it was my design" he said with a hint of pride. I felt my home should embody my…personality.

"Some personality…." She muttered

"Over here, I think I have the perfect sheet" he said leading her down a twisted hall.
