15 The Cast Iron Gate

Pushing open the cast Iron gate he whispered, "Sshhhh,"
This place was eerie at the best of times, however the eve of Halloween made it exceptionally so.
He grinned as he pressed his finger to her soft moist lips, took hold of her hand and quickly pulled her inside.
Enchanted and enticed she didn't resist.

16.  It.     

Standing at my flatmate’s graveside, tearful. I drop the rose onto her coffin. She said something evil haunted her. She wanted help, took medication, had therapy, felt ridiculed and alone. It had tortured her to take her own life. I should have listened, been there. When I got home, it was on her bed, laughing.

17.  Love Haunts  

Once he was her life and she his. He drifted away. He let go as she held tight.
Now, as she hiked through massive green hills, she saw him behind every tree, drinking from a stream and disappearing as she neared.
The cup remained atop a rock, and she knew love lived even in death.

18.   "Halloween Love"
   
"I lay, unmoving on the table. My eyes are closed. He's there, watching me. Gods! I feel his hands touching me, caressing me, appraising me. It's so exciting. He then slides his "knife" into me and my eyes open. Lost in ecstasy, a smile appears on my face. He's made me, I am his Pumpkin."

19. Into the Abyss

There once was a woman covered in blood. She shivered and wept as she looked upon her husband's severed head. It was resting on a table, next to a kitchen knife. “That's what you get my darling,” she said. “For trying to control me.” And his eyes kept looking passed her, looking into the abyss.

20. . 'A' Trick and Treat

"Dazz?"
"Wat!"
"What's wrong?"
"Met a girl yesterday."
"Mmm?"
"Gave me a present too."
"And?"
(drops pants)
"WTF IS THAT?"
"The present."
"A Hello Kitty shaped cock?"
"She named it 'Hello Weenie'."
"What?"
"Was your wife's idea."
"WHAT?"
"Hers is 'Hollow Kitty'."
"WHAT???"
"Do you need a hug?"
"Fuck you!"
"Not till Halloween. Sorry bro."

21. The Unheeded Warning   

They circled each other, wands drawn and fired their electrifying magic. Both jumped, un-humanly high. Their wizard capes billowing and dramatic, evading the others powerful spells and explosions.
“Must Stop!”  The Mothman’s whisperings prophesied oncoming doom.
They ignored the mysterious creature and repeated their war dance on top of Mount Vesuvius, near Pompei in 79AD.

22. Our Girls     

The Army marched. Invading the foreign land,
Burning crops and farm houses, taking spoils at hand.
Blacksmiths, farmers, villagers with no sword could not stand against them.
A peaceful people of a peaceful land
Then at dusk the witches stood upon the hill, a score
Daughters of the land
Screams, then silence at peaceful dawn.

23. Halloween Origins

Right depends on sides
History by the victors
Fiction infects fact
For every Villain slain
Someone’s Hero dies
Which will go to Hell?
Mystical Healers…
An egotistical Church
One would not survive
The rest… “History”
The church has its All Saints day
All the Healers burned
But NOT forgotten…
Witches get their Retribution
Ev’ry Halloween
