Not many scary stories . . .
Jess gave us this story from her trick-or-treating days:
My story is uninspiring but delightful all the same. I have a twin sister and we decided once to dress up alike. We went around town separately, however, and stopped at the same houses multiple times. The poor people had no idea if we were some lost child or how many of us there really were. They were so confused! We had way too much candy for two people but it was fun anyway!
Jean gave us a smorgasbord of scary moments. My favorite,
As an adult, I had to live in the Bronx for three years. I hated that. I heard gunshots regularly. At 2 am, I heard what sounded like large metal dumpsters being dropped — there were no metal dumpsters in the area.
Mysterious things that go crash in the night — now, that’s scary.
By drawing, Jean wins it. Congratulations! (I’ll let Tam know.)

Wow. Thank you!
