Lock
I fell into a long swirling orange and black tunnel. I landed with a loud thump on the ground. A huge town filled with tall, skinny, black buildings stood before me.
A cemetery to the right and a pumpkin patch to the left. I sat up and stared at the town. My skin began to crawl as I felt something hard wrap around my ankle. I looked down to see a long white boney hand.
I didn't scream but I couldn't breath either. What ever it was picked me up as it came up from the grave. I was now in the hands of a very tall very lean skeleton man. He set me down and looked me over.
He was in a black and white pin striped suit with a bat tie. I saw a grave behind him. It read this: He lies Jack Skellington. Pumpkin King of Halloweentown.
"Why didn't you scream?" I shook my head and stared at him. "Excuse me, what?"
"Why didn't you scream?" I swallowed hard. It talked. "I-I-I don't kn-kn-know. I'm n-not scared o-o-of lo-lots of th-things." He smiled. "Your scared. I can tell. You're new here aren't you?" I nodded. "Why, your a human aren't you." I slowly nodded. "Amazing." The skeleton looked me over again.
He touched my nose. I rubbed it from the hard poke. He walked around me a few times. He picked my arm up. He picked out a few strands of hair. I rubbed it. He walked behind me. He grabbed my shirt and started lifting it. I spun around. "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! What are you doing?!"
He then grabbed my ear and shook it. "Hey! That's hurts!" He jumped back a little. "S-sorry. I've never seen a human before." I pointed to the town. "Where am I?" He took me hand and walked me down a path. He opened a tall black gate and clapped his hands twice.
"Welcome to Halloweentown." He led me in and ghost popped up everywhere.
"Boy's and Girl's of every age. Wouldn't you like to see something strange. Come with us and you will see this our town of Halloween. This is Halloween this is Halloween. Pumpkins scream in the dead of night."
