It was that time of year where everyone got to dress up for whatever they felt like. This year I was hoping to be the (text-colour:red)[[devil]], just to rile up my parents. My name is Annabelle and I'm not your average 15 year old that's in High School. I am very smart, and love playing sports. A neat freak, who has a problem with the society. Although there are times when I'm a rebel that gets into trouble.
Also the school which I'm already starting to hate, since my parents moved to North Carolina a while ago, and decided to put me to a High school that wasn't known for anything. I haven't really been able to make any friends at the school, except one.
She's a quiet and shy girl, but she's super smart and once you get to know her you realise how crazy into games she is. I don't mind that at all, but I don't play any video games don't see the point in that.
Her name is Sam, and she just turned 15 couple of weeks ago.
She has tried to teach me how to play fortnite, and I failed at it misreably. To me, I don't see what's the point in that game. So this year she decided to be one of those crazy characters for Halloween. Blaze who apparently is a character that fills the world with flames.
Yada Yada Yada whatever that means. I couldn't wait till after 7pm when everyone was dressed in their crazy costumes, and went door to door saying "Trick-or-Treat". Then strangers give you candy, some candies are really good, while some are so gross. I only like the good kind, obviously who doesn't?
Anyways, Sam and I were going to go at the end of the neighborhood to get candy. That's where all the good stuff is. But, they said to be careful going there since they think the older kids will try and scare the younger ones. Some say that every halloween there's a serial killer that comes out and kills, just for the fun of it. Apparently this serial killer has never been caught, but he has been on the news in the other states. If this serial killer is real, why are parents letting us go trick or treating? It's dangerous for sure, but I hope we don't bump into each other and he kills us.
Now that would suck.
(text-colour:blue)[[keep going]]
or
(text-colour:red)[[Get into the serial killers mind]]I even told Sam we had to be careful tonight, and she just ignored my warning. Well lets hope everything will go right tonight. My parents are making dinner right now, so I decide to call my friend.
She picks up on the third ring.
"Hey what's up? Why'd you call me so early? We still have like 3 hours left before we go trick or treating." Sam said.
"I'm just reminding you that we have to be careful tonight, I don't think my parents know that I will be going a little further away from my neighborhood. But that's where the rich people are, and they always have the best candy.Apparently, the rich people usually stay inside and don't come out that often. So no one sees anything. And they're not that much of a talkers anyways. " I try not to show my concern, but my voice sounds desprate and I know she can tell.
"We will be careful ok? My little brother is going with my mom and my dad will be home. Plus I'm heading to your house in a little bit ok? I just have to pack up my stuff, and get a ride from my dad. We'll be fine tonight." She sighs and hangs up.
I'm just hoping she listens to me, and doesn't do anything reckless. She has a tendancy of doing things that even I don't do. And I am a rebel at times.
Just not like this.
The news has been a warning enough of the crazy killings around the states.

//On the news //
//Over several states there has been random killings. The police has yet to catch the killer. But we warn everyone to stay alert and to always go in groups when going out. We also have police sweep the area to make sure that everyone stays safe. This is news on Channel 5.//
This was the news that 30 year old Bruce had on his old televesion. He's been moving from state to state, randomly killing. You would call him a copycat, because that's exactly what it was. Michael from (text-colour:orange)[[Halloween kills]]. It all began because of his parent's death.
Bruce wouldn't be your typical adult. He was medium sized built, and 6 ft 2. He had dark brown hair, and his eyes were a dull brown. The killings started a few years back, and this was because in the state of Idaho his parents were murdered in cold blood. The police couldn't find the perpetrator. And he got so mad at the system, that this was how he decided to live his life. Avenge his parents on the police, because they couldn't do the job right.
This was his way of showing how mad he was. To make them pay for not bringing justice.
Over the years it's gotten worse and worse.
This year he has decided to move to North Carolina to make new killings. The police and the telelvision news is always warning people to be careful. But no one really cares these days, so that is why he is deciding to kill every Halloween. He can't stop!!! But Bruce highly doubts that anyone gives a damn. He has always targeted younger girls, because it's what makes the parents cry and beg the authorities for help.
And every year he always adds something different to his style. Or how the corpses are displayed to the public. Sometimes he wants people to see his artwork. Other times he just wishes people would just up, and mind their own goddamn business. It makes him be pissed all damn day.
His usual kills happen during the night. He does it quietly, just like Michael does in the movies.
It's his best [[act]] yet. My parents finally call me to help set the table for dinner. A part of me is excited that my only friend from High School is coming over soon, and that we'll be going together on this crazy cold Halloween night. It's still early now, and close to 5. Didn't think time flew by this fast, it was just 4pm.
"Mom, Sam is coming in a little bit could we set a plate for her? She said she was coming soon." I turn to look at my mother. She was young, with blonde wavy hair up to her shoulders, and her eyes were dark emerald green. I looked nothing like her except for the eyes, I think I got my dark hair from my dad. Although his is even darker than mine.
"That's fine, we have plenty of food. I'm glad you're making friends at school, I knowing moving away from Virginia wasn't easy for you. But, I am glad that you're at least trying. Your father didn't know his company would move him across states. But, I know this will be our permanent home." She smiled at me and went to the kitchen to grab some napkins and plates. I felt bad for being a rebel sometimes, it was always hard on my mom and my dad. They are both busy people.
(text-colour:lime)[[Ring the doorbell]]As I look at the clock, I now see that it's a little past 7. It will be almost time for me to leave. I should leave a little before everyone starts going out. Especially the children. I don't want them seeing me out and about and asking their stupid questions. I don't really want to be killing the youngsters. It's not in my plan for today.
Today will definitely be the day, the police doesn't come to this neighborhood. And if they are they won't know that I'm here, my killings have been at the random states. None were close enough to form a pattern. I wanted it to to be this way so it would be harder for them to catch me.
I'm surprised they haven't caught me, after all these years of doing this.
I decide to go through the back, and I lock this old cabin. I don't live anywhere near anyone. Not for a couple of miles anyway, but then again peole do go into these woods at times. And if I feel like it, I'll be a bastard and kill them.
Lets just hope they don't at this time.
I get into my truck and head out to the rich people's neighborhood. I'm hoping I can find a parking where my car isn't going to be questioned as to why it was there. Hopefully anyone who wasn't stupid and didn't want to pis me off would think nothing of it.
(text-colour:blue)[[Continue driving]](change:?page,
(background:#ffbf00))
"That must be Sam, I'll get that."
I went to open the door, and there she was standing with her bag of costume and her phone in her hand.
"I didn't think you would be here so early Sam. We're about to finish setting the table. But, I think the food is ready though." I come and gave her big hug her, and tugged her gently inside.
"Well whatever your parents cook, I always love. You know I do." She says, and laughs a little. Her laugh is contagious. It was one of the reasons why I loved her so much, and the reason why she was the only best friend that I had here.
"Let's go and eat then, otherwise we won't have enough time to get ready. We need at least an hour, if we want to leave at 7pm." I say, as I lead her to the dining room. The table is already set, and the food smells delicous. I wonder what my mom cooked.
"This smells delicous Mrs.Rowen." Sam says, almost as if reading my thoughts. But there was no such thing as telepathy. It only existed in books and movies.
Now my mother uncovered the food, and I saw that it was one of my favorite pastas. A ravioli with the meatsauce, speenach and cheese. It smelled so delicious, you wouldn't say no to this.
(text-colour:green)[[Eat the Ravioli]]
[[go back->act]]
"This is really great mom, the ravioli tastes amazing. I see you have the italian sausage too. This is honestly a perfect meal for halloween, or for any day for that matter. Are you guys just going to stay home and answer the door the kids?" I ask, as I take a bite of the sausage. It's so tender, but at the end it has that small spice. Very delicious.
"Yes, what else is there to do for us? We'll clean up, while you go and get ready for (text-colour:yellow)[[trick-or-treating]]. I think it's a little after 6 now, you guys should head up and get ready." She smiles, as she finishes the last of her ravioli.
Sam and I get up and head to my room, to get ready in our costumes. My parents will probably not like my devil costume, but oh well. I think it's fire.
See what I did there? HA HA
"You think anyone will figure out my costume Annabelle? I know it's too geeky and anyone who plays fortnite will figure it out. Unless they don't, then they'll be confused like you were when I first showed you who Blaze was. You're face was so puzzled, I couldn't help but laugh. Anyways put your sexy devil costume on."
"It's not a sexy devil costume, I made sure that everything was appropriate to wear in front of the kids. You know I'm not like that." I say to her, as I tug the dark wings behind me, and set the big red horns on my head. I also bought a tail, somehow I was able to find one. It was a pretty cool outfit. With my high heeled boots, I did look like a badass.
As I turn to look over my friend she looks awesome, the costume doesn't do her justice. Every gamer would guess her costume correctly, unlike me.
Minutes later we finally start doing our make up, I make sure I just keep it simple and not do too much.
I hate cakey make up look, it makes your skin look all patchy and everything. She decides to paint her skin purple, and wear these badass pants and a red metalic shirt. She even has these big goggles on top of her head. Very interesting. She also decided to put on purple contancts. I hope they're not too uncomfortable.
I look at the clock one more time, and I see that it's 7:15pm. We were already running late as it was.
"We have to go now Sam. Come on!" I say, as I see her do her final touches. We finally leave our room, and grab our trick-or-treat bags.
"Bye mom, wer're leaving now." I say as we finally make our way outside and into the night. I didn't bother to stop and let her see my costume. She'll probably see it later.
(text-colour:red)[[killers mind->ac
We decide to walk down our neighborhood and do a few of the trick-or-treating, just enough to have some candy in our bags. I'm so eager to start and get that good candy.
I'm sure Sam is too, she always like the Kit-Kats. Like I do, and she loves those lolipops. I don't see the point in them, they're too small and they're not so tasty anymore.
"Come on Annabelle, stop being a wuss. We got enough candy now, we can start going to the rich-side part of the other neighborhood. To the rich folk we go!" She grabs my hand, and basically forces me to run after her. She's a fast runner, did I forgot to mention. Too fast for me to catch up to her. She is of course on the track team, and she is the top runner in our school.
My breath comes in big pufs and I have to slow down, before my heart jumps out of my chest. I can already feel the tiredness of my legs. I stop for a second to relax my muscles and then begin running again.
The hairs at the back of my neck stand up all of a sudden. It's a feeling you get when someone is either watching you, or when something isn't right in that moment.Like in scary movies either a ghost is there, or a feeling you get when something bad is about to happen. I turn slightly to the right, keeping my head straight ahead and on my peripheral vision I see a man. He's wearing the costume from the Halloween movie. And he is just standing there watching us closly. It makes my skin crawl, knowing this was a bad idea coming to this neighborhood.
Something about him screamed danger. My instincts were telling me that it wasn't just a Halloween costume.
Not the fun kind that everyone else is wearing.
[[Knock on the door again]]As I come to the last huge house, I decide to park where it's dark. I wanted to make sure that kids or anyone else isn't going to be here watching me take out my weapons. Cause if they did, I'll kill them without a thought.
I really wanted to have a successful Halloween.
As I look little beyond the street I see these dumb kids, and teenagers coming with their bags full of candy and knocking door to door, basically asking them for candy just to eat this stupid shit and throw up hours later. It's honestly a waiste of time, for me that is.
But it is every year that I get to kill those annoying son of a guns and I enjoy it too. Not too far from where I'm parked I see my perfect opportunity to start my hunt.
There are two girls wearing ridiculous costums. But yet something makes me pause. One of the girl with the dark hair is wearing a devil costumes. Your typical stupid basic costume.
[[Start following the girls]]
or
(text-colour:orange)[[go back->trick-or-treating]]I'm keeping a close eye on them, but I have realised my mistake. The girl whose the devil has realised I've been watching them. I have to blend in better this time.
This is pissing me off on a different level. I thought this would be simpler like in the other states. But I now realize that it's not. As I continue to move and follow them, hoping this time she won't notice me.
I'm hoping I can catch them at a good time and kidnap them. But that girl is too intuitive.
She's too freaking observing. She will have to go down first.
I now start to see that more and more people start to come to this neighorhood. What is up with this stupid dumb kids. For whatever reason they want to come at a late hour, this backs up my plans of getting my sweet sweet kills. I will have to wait for a bit more, and blend into the darkness.
My kills are to the exact replica to the one from Halloween kills. I never talk during my kills, I don't see the point in that. In some movies killers talk, and that's why in the end they get caught or worse killed.
I slip away.
(text-colour:grey)[[blend into the shadows]]The guy has now moved a little closer to us, at this point I feel that Sam and I would die. Or worse get killed by him. I could see that he was carrying something with him.
As I was about to say something to Sam, the door to the house opens and an old lady comes out with a bowl of delicous candy.
I'm surprised she even held it without her arm shaking. It looked heavy.
"Trick-or-Treat!" We both say, as we bring our open Halloween bags to her.
"Aren't you ladies too old for this kind of thing? Oh well, here are some candy for you two. Enjoy the rest of the night, and take care of yourselves." With that she went back inside.
"She's probably looking out for us, and other people that come by. Lets go to the next house, shall we?"
I tug her to me so she comes closer and say "Ah Sam, I think someone is following us. Do you see the guy by the tree that's dressed as Michael from the Halloween movie? We better hurry, I have a bad feeling about this."
"Ok, ok we'll go somewhere else. But I want to get more candy. Our bags are not full yet." With that she links her arm with mine, and we head to where the other kids and teenagers are.
[[Choose the next house]]
or
[[go back->Start following the girls]] Further down we go, I realize now all the kids are almost done with their Trick-or-treating, since they're too young to stay up late. Makes sense to me in this situation. As my nerves start to calm down, I look around and I no longer see the guy, he must've gone. I tell Sam that we need to hurry anyways, because I was getting tired by the minute. And it's always cold in October, I could never stand it.
"We'll go to a couple more houses and then we can both go home. Deal?" She looks at me with her eyebrows raise. I look at her and nod.
We continue our trick-or-treating for the next several minutes. By the time I look at the clock I notice that it was almsot 9:30pm. And it was getting colder and colder by the minute. Our bags are now so full, it's almost to the top.
Sam knocks on this ginormous house, and we wait a few minutes before a guy opens the door. I guess he could be a father, but he looks a little too young to be one. This guy has a mask over his face, but all I could see was his bright blue eyes.
I smile and we both open our bags and together we say "Trick-or-treat"
The guy doesn't say anything and just hands us a big sack of candy. I honestly couldn't wait to have some. He's acting like he's an actual zombie.
What the freak!
"Thank you." I say, as he carefully puts the small bag of candy in bags. I just now noticed that he was wearing gloves.
//That's so weird// I thought.
[[continue on]]
or
.
[[go back->blend into the shadows]]
As I carefully move around leaving the girls to collect their precious candy for the night. I decide to start my first killing of the night. At the far end of the street I see a huge house I decide to enter it from the back. As I cut through the bushes, I quietly creep towards the guy that is watching television.
Weird, that guy is barely moving. You would think that asshole was dead. As I look closer, I smile and realize the dude is dead asleep.
PERFECT!
I inch forward and slowly see if I could open the door. As I carefully move the handle down, I carefully pull it towards me and the door opens.
What
an
idiot!!!
To leave this door unlocked. I hide myself between the shadows of the walls, the guy is still asleep. I see him wearing a mask, not anything crazy like mine or from Scream. I pull out my butcher knife and slice his throat so fast he never would've seen that coming.
He gurgles at the back of his throat, the blood is already pouring out so fast.
I smile, my night has just begun.
I quickly make sure no one has heard me, and I (text-colour:grey)[[slip away]] back into the night. (change:?page,
(background:#3e8ade))
Sam and I finally have a bag full of delicous candy, that we're ready to head home.
I think she enjoyed this way too much. I still had this nerve wrecking feeling that something wasn't right. But I decided to ignore it, and continue on with the night. It was already hitting 10pm by now, and my curfew was in an hour.
"We should probably head home Sam. Otherwise my parents will be calling me, and people are already heading home anyways. We should do the same."
"You're right, but lets hit one more house and then we'll go. I just need a few more treats, might give it to my brother since he went with my mom. And our neighborhood doesn't have good candies. No rich person lives there. Too quiet and boring. Plus the houses are too small." She grabs my hand, and together we go to the last house for the night.
I just hope it doesn't get that much colder.
I was already freezing in this costume.
[[go back->Creep closer]] (change:?page,
(background:#fce5cd))
(text-colour:black)[I try not to SMILE at what I just done. The regular folk, would scream in horror.
But, it's a thrill to me, and it makes me happy. No one is going to ruin my night tonight.
Now I have to go back out and find more people to slaughter.
Quietly.
Starting with those girls. I have a feeling the one with the devil costume would rattle me out to the cops. All my plans will be ruined if that wretch does it.
I run towards the house at the end, and the girls are already turning back. I see them walking for one more house. The whole neighborhood has gone dark. Everyone is leaving to go home. This is the perfect time to strike! My revenge is finally paying off.]
[[Creep closer]]
(text-colour:black)[or ]
[[go back->continue on]] (change:?page,
(background:#8b0d2a))
I creep on the girls, making sure that I'm not seen from any of the kids that are leaving in the opposite direction. I would be very annoyed if they did.
I smile as I am now few feet away from them, this is perfect.As they are both turned the other direction this would be the prefect time to strike and hurt both of them. I still had my butcher knife with me. Unfortunetly it still had the blood of the dead guy, who was still in his house with the tv on. What a shame when everyone will figure out he's dead. So sad really, but I can just imagine everyone's face when they see all the blood and gore.
Now I was ready to strike the girl with the devil costume. Her friend will die next, I knew that I had to make this quick before anyone could hear their screams. Quickly I raise my knife and grab hold of the girl and slit her throat. Her friend opens her mouth and screams. Now I have to shut her up too.
(text-colour:red)[DAMN IT!]
Now I quickly run after her since ran to get help. Well this puts more work, that I didn't want or need.
I still had time to catch up to her and kill her. I didn't care if anyone saw me, they'll end up dead too.
in a few seconds and I got her in my arms. As quickly as I can I bring my knife and slice her throat too. Got a good stab too, for almost rattling me out. She falls to the ground, as the blood springs out of her throat. And here I am smiling.
(text-colour:orange)
[[Get away fast]]Both of the girls are now dead. Might as well leave them where there are now, and go to find more people to kill.
Just cause I feel like it, and I'm a bastard about it. I start running towards my car. I am deciding to leave 3 bodies here. But, I will go and get my last killings on the other side of town. I figured the police won't be here till morning. Since I'm sure someone will call them. But they won't catch up to me tonight. I will be long gone, and in another state finishing the job. It's my revenge.
Don't now how long I will be doing this for, but not long. I don't want the stupid police catching the Halloween Killer.
Would ruin everything that I've built.
I get in my truck, and put the knife in a plastic bag and hide it. In minutes I'm gone from this worthless town, heading out for my next target.
My mission here is accomplished. I usually kill more people than that, but I knew I had to flee before someone saw me.
Florida here I come!
