A lonesome soul. Watching the wayward water droplets race against the window glass. Wrapped up in a blanket of darkness and stars. Do not believe the deceiver living in your brain.

An empty husk walking amongst the living. Followed by curious spirits and mischievous ghouls. Dark omens stay hidden in shadow. For the Pumpkin King has made their presence known.

Pumpkins carved and sitting on the doorsteps. Their faces twisted and laughing with light spilling out. Ghosts wander the streets as their howls mix with the chilled air.
