They have ancient legends that there is a place in the world where you can meet a large tree with a purple and yellow leaves, this tree has a small door with a picture of a frightened face, and if you walk into you will notice right away that you're in a completely different world. Where there isn't howling werewolves, vampires don't bite , zombies don't walk as if they were stupid and the witch only catch broom for cleanning, evereyone living together, peacefuly whit a king to whom evereybody respect and scared at the same time.

Once a year, a festival called "Neewollah" in which little monsters are disguised as "human" of all screaming... ¡trick or treat! And if you didn't give him meat, red blood juice, a small brain or a little frog, a big human come this night and take all the children of the house, to transform into another human...

Is it a dream?

PUM! I heard a terrible noise through the window. I'm going to look what is happening. Oh! It Is Halloween!. There are many children disguised about witches, vampires, zombies, with different kind of masks, spiders and bats, also. But that noise was the pigeon crashed in the window.

I´m alone, and something sounds on the groundfloor. I go down and no one is here, but I feel a breath on my neck, I turned on back... and I just could see the darkness and a terrible cold... Suddenly I can feel what someone is watching me and touching my hair.

I get up the stairs but my house is empty. I start to have fear. I try to call but the phone doesn´t function.

Despite of don´t believing in ghosts, I can remeber all the stories that my parents told me when I was a child.

So I go to my bedroom with a knife because I hear steps. I´m into my room, but it is empty. The door is closed, I see the mirror, and there is a shadow coming to me. I can´t do anything with the knife,

PUM! I start sweating, and instantanely I wake up, with my heart beating fast. Something has crashed with the window... It's the pigeon that crashed through my window and now it's death.

A child who was disguised an a ghost heared some voices, these voices tell them: 'give me my tractor, if you don't give me you're goig to dead. The child was running around the city looking for the farmer's tractor in order to the farmer wasn't going to kill him.

Running and running the child arrived to the cemetery where there was a path whit many candles. The path went to the farmer’s coffin, the coffin was empty and there was a note. The note said: 'if you find another note you could finish whit me, but this won't be easy, you have to find a pumpkin lamppost and come back here before 00:00 a.m'.

To find the lamppost there wasn't easy, but when the child was very depressed he found it in the smaller street of the city. With only 15 minutes to reach the 00.00 the child ran to the cemetery, then when he arrived the farmer was going to kill the child, but the ghost came back to life and he explain why he killed to the farmer, this one understood the ghost and both went to theirs coffins and the child ran to his house.

The worse halloween night

The October last day I found a colourful village and many children disguised tricking and treating in order to get candies for all the streets. But I felt a spooky presence that this quiet night I couldn’t sleep. I felt insecure and when I left to the street a haunted shadows appeared close to me.

When I realized,I was at the cementery where were hundred of oppening coffins and a huge quantity of monsters, so I wanted to die inmediately!.

Monsters started running going out throuth the lake, then I decided to follow them. When I arrived I hided into the wood in order to see what they want to do. So I realized that suddenly that a cold hand touched my shoulder then I wanted to shout but when I realized I was in the middle of all of them, I was dead scared. I can’t explain what happened then, because it’s so highest now it’s supperior to everithing. I just have to say that my life has changed now giving a 180 degrees.

THE YOUNG JOURNALIST

Jim suddenly woke up, shaking with cold, his entire body covered with frozen sweat melting slowly upon its surface, and he could hardly realize what was happening...

The young journalist, or whoever he was as he was not able to recognize himself, was lying on the pavement. He was wearing shabby clothes with traces of dried blood sticked on them and his body was unbearably painful, each part of it covered with bruises. Then, he didn't know why, he started to think about his tie. Where was it? He remembered his plain blue brand-new tie his girlfriend presented him with because of his new job. Strange thoughts...
He came back to the reality and concentrated on the street. Everything was wrapped in a gloomy atmosphere and a cold hazy air covered everywhere making him shiver and tremble with fear. This part of the city was unusually silent and he realized there was neither traffic nor people. The city was utterly empty but strangely full of something dismal, sinister. Where was everybody? Was he dreaming? It didn't seem real whatsoever.
All of a sudden, attracted by a tenebrous sound, he turned back on his feet and saw that the front door of his house was opened, leaving a fetid and rancid smell come out from inside. Jim approached carefully to the door, pushed it trying not to breath, and came in. What he could see was terrifying. His living room was a mess all surrounded by broken furniture and blood. But, the most shocking fact that petrified him was that, in the middle of the room, someone was hanging with his tie around his neck. Who was he? He was scarcely able to see due to the thick mist therefore he decided to come closer. Slowly, he was mencing towards the unknown person and, as he was approaching him, he was becoming breathless. The atmosphere seemed to be more and more oppressive and when he distinguished himself as the one who was hanging there everything started to spin around him, faster and faster, while he was falling down. An awe-inspiring scream came out his mouth and his world got dark.
The following day, he was wearing a smart black suit and a tight white shirt which suited him perfectly. An enigmatic smile was placed in his mouth while the vicar was praying for him and his soul and his girlfriend fell into pieces. It was the inspector who had said that the investigation was finished as it was an obvius case of suicide. Then, who was he? He didn't know it and he didn't care about it. Nobody in the funeral seemed to take notice of his presence... It was odd but comforting. He had now a longer life to make people suffer and to steal their souls in a sinister scenario which made people think it was a suicide in order to become immortal...

The crossing

At first, he felt an uncomfortable low temperature. He was still layed on the bed and he was aware that he hadn’t had a good dream because he was really tired and quite nervous. When he tried to push back the white blanket that covered him, he couldn’t, he realized that his body was totally paralyzed.
At a sudden, the light of the bedroom switch on and he was completely dazzled. He could hear men’s guttural voices but he couldn’t hear very well. He tried to talk to them but it was impossible, he couldn’t pronounce any word; next, the light switch off and a sepulchral silence filled the place, even his petrified mouth.
The time went by and he had been dazzled and he had heard the voices time and again, but now, he was unable to perceive the difference between brightness and darkness, besides he was conscious of his absolutely deafness. However he hadn’t lost his sense of smell yet, so he could smell a fetid, rotten and offensive odor. He felt terrified with the dreadful certainty that he was being decomposed.

THE ANTIROOM OF HILL

It was very windy on the Old Hill, We had been walking an hour and it was getting dark. There was a funny smell in the air, which reminded us of the smell of cooking fat.

When we got to the shelter, the door was shattered, and the smell was even more intense ... What had happened?

It was too late to return to Greenville and we decided to stay at the shelter, although there was something strange in the shelter, a feeling or a presence, although there was nothing that we could see. 

We lit the gas lamps, and we all got in a corner to make dinner. But the smell was becoming even more intense and suddenly Patty was sick and went out to vomit.

We were getting increasingly nervous, the smell was unbearable and suddenly the wind ceased to blow…

Patty didn’t return and I went to look for her. There was a very thick fog and despite me calling her with all my strength, I could only hear the echo of my voice.

I returned to the shelter, and I was surprised not to find any of my friends… everything was filled with a gelatinous layer that gave off an intense smell like sebum. Fear paralyzed me, this gelatinous liquid began to take a human form and I could only hear a hoarse voice which told me… Welcome to the anteroom of Hill!

A PORCELAIN DOLL

That night was like the others, a quiet night at the General Medicine Unit at the St Louis Hospital. I was working, in this moment, I was lying at the sofa, waiting any call of a patient needing help, when suddenly I heard a child crying. I thought it would be an awake child from the paediatric unit that is in the other side of the floor.

I went out and saw, at the end of the dark corridor, a little girl dressed with the nightdress hospital, she might be hospitalized. I picked her up and I tried to talk with her but she didn’t answer me, I thought she maybe was a sleep-walker.The girl had very big blue eyes, she was blonde, she was pretty and seemed a beautiful porcelain doll.

I took her hand and we walked to the paediatric unit looking for the nurse. All of a sudden she stopped and pointed at a room’s door. We directed to there, and when we arrived I let go her hand to open the door.

I came in and I saw the same girl laying down the bed, she was unconscious, in coma. I turned back rapidly and the little girl was disappeared.I ran to the main computer and check her medical record; she was in coma since a week due to a car crash in which his parents die.

FAMILY MATTERS

After driving along a narrow mountain road in a dreary day, Sue and Peter arrived to the cabin where Sue’s grandparents lived. They had decided to spend a few days there, so that Peter met the old and adorable couple for the first time.

The house wasn’t big but it was comfortable and safe in the cold winter. Next to it there was a small granary and a fence for animals.They lived isolated in a tenebrous forest, near a lake with opaque waters; it was a place where the howls of wolves used to be heard at night.

They were extremely exhausted so they went to bed. The grandfather clock was chiming midnight when Peter suddenly woke up trembling and said to Sue that somebody was screaming. She answered that it might be a pig and then they tried to sleep again.
The following day was hazy and a sibilant wind was blowing. Peter felt that something was wrong so he went to the granary. As he was arriving, a fetid stench made him feel sick.
He got in slowly, it was dark, he had droplets of sweat on his forehead. As soon as he switched on the light he was horrified because there was blood everywhere; then he was shocked when he realized that there wasn’t any pig or animal at all.
Peter opened a closet suspiciously and a pungent slimy foot fell over him. He turned around quailing and saw Grandpa face to face with a creepy smile and a bloody axe.
In the evening, Sue was worried since she didn’t know where Peter was. Grandma offered her a hot soup to calm her down. She stirred the soup with a spoon and something rose to the surface. She was panic-stricken.It was a finger with Peter’s wedding ring!!!

The origin of Halloween

They had two brothers, who were lost at the same time. They were Peter and Willian. Willian was the older and he died the 31th October in 1832. This was the date that they chose to celebrated a party. Obviously, Peter cancelled the party, because he was so sad.

Willian wanted to go to the haven but he couldn't. He became to be a ghost.

Peter decided to talk with him when he was dreaming, so Willian told him that he must do it the party than they had prepared. Besides, he said that he'll go it.This was the condition that he had if he'd wanted to enter into the haven. That will be the 'Halloween party'.

Peter though that with this party he thank his brother. When the day of the party arrived, they started to remember when they were alive and enjoyed together. It was so amazing, because since this day they will be together, again. 

In conclusion, they had decided to named to this party as 'Halloween'. So since then all October 31th we celebrate this party, generation to generation.
