Well, there was this story my friend told me. He was trick - or - treating in a neighborhood he didn't know well. He knocked on a door and a man in a really strange mask opened it. The man just stared at him for a while without saying a word and then slowly handed him a piece of candy that looked like it had a bug in it. My friend ran away as fast as he could.
There was this little girl who dressed up as a princess. When she got to a house, she was so excited to get the candy that she accidentally said 'Trick!' instead of 'Trick or treat!'. The person at the door was confused at first but then just laughed and gave her a big handful of candy. It was really funny seeing her blush with embarrassment.
A boy in a skeleton costume knocked on a door. An old man opened it. His face was full of wrinkles and his voice was hoarse. He gave the boy a lollipop. But as soon as the boy put it in his mouth, he felt like his tongue was on fire. Another story is that a girl trick - or - treating noticed a house with a strange blue light. She entered the yard and a ghostly dog barked at her. She was so scared she dropped her candy bucket. The last story is about a group of kids who went to a house where the owner was wearing a mask that looked like it was made of human skin.
One story is about a group of kids going trick - or - treating in an old neighborhood. They knocked on a particularly spooky - looking house. An old lady opened the door, her face half - hidden in the shadows. She gave them candies, but as they were leaving, they heard a strange growling from inside the house. When they looked back, the old lady had disappeared, and the door was slowly closing on its own.
Well, first of all, the unknown factor is really spooky. In these stories, the kids don't really know what they are getting into when they knock on those doors. The people who answer the doors are often very strange. Take the old woman with the crooked smile or the man in the black cloak. Their appearance is quite off - putting. Then there are the items they give out. Teeth in a box of cookies? That's just disturbing. And the fact that these things seem to have some sort of hidden meaning or curse associated with them makes it even scarier. The overall environment of the houses, whether it's the eerie silence or the strange smells, also contributes to the spookiness. For example, a house with a pet raven gives off a very gothic and spooky vibe. All these elements combined create a really creepy atmosphere for the trick - or - treating horror stories.
There was a man who was driving on a lonely road at night. His car radio started playing music from the 1940s. As he continued driving, he saw a small town up ahead that looked like it was from that era. But when he got closer, it vanished. It could be a time glitch, where he somehow glimpsed a moment from the past on that desolate road.
Sure. One time I went trick - or - treating with my friends. We knocked on this one door and an old lady opened it. Instead of giving us candy, she told us a really spooky but funny ghost story right there on the porch. Then she finally remembered to give us some huge chocolate bars.
There's a Christmas spooky story where in an old mansion, every Christmas Eve, a cold wind blows through the halls even though all the windows are closed. Legend has it that a previous owner was murdered on Christmas and his spirit lingers. People claim to see a shadowy figure walking around the fireplace where he was killed. Also, there's a story of a Christmas carol singer who disappeared years ago. Every Christmas, people say they can still hear her voice singing faintly in the snow - like she's still trying to finish her caroling route.
There was this one time when my sister and I were out trick - or - treating. We went to a house where the owner had a parrot. As we said 'trick or treat', the parrot squawked 'candy for the kids!'. We all burst out laughing, and the owner gave us extra-large lollipops.
There was a story of a man who worked late at his office. As he was walking down the empty corridor, he suddenly got full body chills. He then heard the sound of typing coming from an empty office. When he peeked in, the typewriter was moving on its own. It was really creepy. Also, a girl in a dormitory felt a full body chill when she saw a face at the window that vanished in an instant.
One funny trick story is about a magician who made it seem like he was sawing a woman in half, but it was all a trick. In another story, a group of friends tied a string across a doorway very low so that when someone walked through, they would trip a little bit. It was all in good fun.
