"I've seen enough horror movies to know that any weirdo wearing a mask is never friendly." ~Friday the 13th

The plane landed in Philadelphia Airport a little after ten A.M. From there, the BAU team was escorted to West Chester local police department, where a conference room was set up with everything the team needed. On the white board were photos of four teenagers between the ages of 16 and 18. Next to each photo was another snapshot; the same four teens, but unrecognizable. Each was missing their head.

"Is there anything I can get you guys?" asked the lieutenant, eyeing Aaron Hotchner. When Hotch shook his head, the lieutenant left them, leaving the BAU team alone.

"Let's recap before we send anybody anywhere," said Hotch, pulling out his case folder as the team did the same. JJ Jareu went to the board.

"Four teens; Samantha Rowling, 16, Kirsten Cawley, 17, Sean Tucket, 16, and Jonah Lexly, 18, all found dead within the past two and a half weeks. Each were at a different dump site, but each had the same MO."

"Decapitation," murmured Dr. Spencer Reid, flipping through the pages at a lightning fast pace, absorbing all the information into his never-ceasing brain.

"But look at the overkill," motioned David Rossi to the "after" photos. "Whatever he used to decapitate the kids wasn't what he used to stab them." Rossi was right. The neck wounds were sloppy and torn, while the stab wounds on the torso and arms were smooth and shallow.

"The autopsy report says that the majority of the cuts were inflicted post-mortem," said Derek Morgan, looking up from his folder. "Some seem to be from the kids fighting back. So what did he use for the neck?"

"Wow," said an alarmed Emily Prentiss, finally reaching the autopsy report in the back of the folder. "A chainsaw? Really?"

"On every one," said JJ, turning pale. "All were supposedly abducted from the same place at around the same time of night. The thing that makes this all bizarre is that they were abducted in front of at least thirty witnesses."

Morgan stared at the blonde at the board. "Wait, thirty witnesses and no suspects? How the Hell does that happen?"

JJ retrieved a photo from her file and pinned it up on the board. "The newest and latest attraction in Halloween terror; interactive haunted houses."

"Come again?" asked Rossi, staring at a photo of a Hollywood style done-up haunted house which seemed to be in the middle of a large farm. On top of the photo were the words, "FRIGHT NIGHT" in blood-dripping font.

"It's labeled one of the ten scariest places in the USA. During the month of October, people from all over come to this, Fright Night, in order to get the crap scared out of them once it gets dark. This particular location has three main attractions; a corn maze, motel, and hayride," explained JJ.

"So what, our victims were picked out of a group at this place?" asked Hotch, not seeing the connection.

"Not exactly. The thing is, the majority of the actors that work at this place are in their late teens to early twenties. A lot of times the actors know the customers. At Fright Night, if an actor and customer set it up before hand, the actor is allowed to drag a visitor off the hayride and into the woods in order to freak the other customers out. The only thing is, this actor didn't know the customers, and the abductions weren't staged. They were real."

"And no one did anything?" asked a shocked Reid. JJ just shook her head. "They were all there for the attractions. They thought it was just another stunt."

"Why don't we just shut down the place until we have at least one suspect in custody?" asked Emily, leaning back onto a desk. "I mean, I doubt they'll get much business with teens being kidnapped and murdered there."

JJ laughed. "You'd be surprised. Since news went out of the murders, they've had to turn people away. There just isn't enough room to accommodate all the people who want in."

"You can't be serious," said Reid. He just didn't get it…the whole 'let's go get the crap scared out of us' aspect to the holiday of Halloween. It was never intended to be like that.

"I'm serious. People are fully embracing it," said JJ, rolling her eyes.

"Right," said Hotch, taking over. "Reid and Prentiss, go to this Fright Night place and talk to the manager. Ask if he might have any idea if one of his employees is capable of this and how tight their security is. Morgan, you and I will go to the last dump site. Rossi, you talk to the parents and see if our unSub has a type or if he chooses at random. JJ, I need you to call Garcia. I need her to get records of every employee working at Fright Night. Check for criminal records, complaints, anything that might seem suspicious. We need to know if our unSub is an employee or just someone posing as one."

The team split into their assigned groups and headed on their way. It was safe to say that no one on the team had ever faced anything quite like this before.

Author's Note:

Ok, so Halloween is my favorite holiday ever. I personally am a haunted house addict, so I decided to introduce our fav BAU team to one of my personal favourites. Tell me if you like so far:)
