A very scary Halloween story.
by Jake Allins (age 7)

Once there was a toast. He lived in a regular toaster. He had a lot of friends. All of them met at their favorite amusement park. Mr. Toast said, “Today is Halloween!” All of Mr. Toast’s friends got excited. They hung up the scary Halloween decorations and they put out the pumpkin in front of their house. The sun was setting, Mr. Toast and his friends went outside to trick-or-treat.

As they were walking, they came to a strange house. Mr. Toast and his friends were scared to go inside the house, but they were curious. They went inside the haunted house.

They didn’t know that the house was haunted. They knocked on the door and said, “Trick or treat!” But no one answered. “Trick or treat!” they yelled again and knocked harder. No one answered. But the door opened by itself. It was quiet, dark and scary inside. “Let’s not go inside, it’s too scary,” said Clem Lemon. “Let’s go inside together,” said his brother Lemonhead. So they all went inside.

“All of a sudden skeletons and ghosts came from nowhere. They said “BOO!!! We will eat you!” “Will you eat all of us?” asked Shaky Bacon. “No,” said the monsters. “We will only eat Mr. Toast, Joe the Egg, Shaky Bacon, Muffin Baker, Pear and Candy Corn.”

“What about the rest of us?” asked Leif. “We don’t like to eat glue, cork, ink and candles,” said the monsters. “Do you like onions?” asked Mope. “No!” said the biggest skeleton, “no onions!” “I will not let you hurt my friends!” said Candle Boy and flamed up. The haunted house caught on fire. Everybody got very scared.

“Wake up, mister Toast,” said Joe the Egg. “Did you have a bad dream?” “Yes,” said Mr. Toast. “You should not eat all your Halloween candy before you go to bed. It will give you bad dreams,” said Joe the Egg.

The End.
