A Memory: Halloween 2007
I wore face paint, striped ears and a long tail. I drew whiskers on my cheeks, and made sure orange stripes appeared on my forehead and neck. The paint on my face was so thick I felt unrecognizable. When I answered the door to trick or treaters, I jumped-out with a Tiger's roar and playfully scratched the kids with my pretend paws. They ran away screaming with fear while their pumpkin baskets dangled sideways spilling sweets everywhere. Some kids hid behind their parents' back, who were having a Halloween time at their children's expense.
That night, I became a monster. I found contentment in hearing the children's screams and delightfully fed on their fears. I seem to have forgotten who I was as I stayed awake to the wee hours of the night admiring my whiskers and my tail. To top all that, I felt no remorse when I made a little girl cry wearing a ladybug costume. "I'm so sorry," I told her dad with my sincerest voice. Deep inside, I was silently grinning and having an evil good time.
Of course I gave them candies afterwards.
Happy Halloween!

ReplyDeletems firefly, this is one reason why they say "trick or treat." trick means to scare them, treat means sweets. i give them both a scare and sweets...=). i hope you'll have a fun first halloween. although i'm not so sure how the irish celebrate halloween. i bet there'll be leprechauns and fairies there.
