A Spooktacular Halloween!

My upright is spooky. I'm not too sure I like her "new" face.

​On Hollow’s Eve not a creature stirred, not even a mouse, because it was dead!  I crept past the mouse and hunted for some eye of newt!  But instead of figuring out what that was, I met a werewolf who howled, a vampire who tried to drink my blood, and a zombie who may have turned me into one! 
 For Halloween, my upright and I always perform our Spooky tales for children.  This year we acted out some wonderful shows at the Dinosaur Resource Center, Springs Ranch Elementary, and the Mission Viejo Library in Aurora.  We told scary tales and made a brew that bubbled! 
 In my story, I searched for some eye of newt.  My upright needed it for her brew.  I entered a dark and scary wood and encountered spooky sounds.  I wasn’t really scared until a glowing orb rose above the skeleton trees.  An eerie glow descended upon the woods and I panicked!  I’m not a brave dog, not at all!  I cried, “Woof!” then I ran.  But I was chased by a werewolf, vampire, and zombie.  They cornered me and I trembled with fear, until someone shouted, “Trick or Treat!” 
 I returned to my upright without the eye of newt.  She was not happy, so she made me taste her bubbling brew.  It turned me into a ladybug!  Now, I’m stuck fluttering my wings until the next Halloween!
