Hallowhat?
Something weird happened in a little town in Holland. People whispered about a certain street, where strange creatures were seen.
They peeked around bushes and through windows. They seemed to be everywhere all of a sudden. At first the people were scared and worried, but someone pointed out: Those masked creatures didn't seem all that unfriendly.
There were even little ones with masks. Little ones that were heard to softly whisper:"It's a party, it's a party. It's a Halloween Party!" "Halloween?", the people thought. "Isn't that something from far away, with monsters and witches and all things scary?"
Their curiosity was stronger than their fear. Carefully they came closer, even though it seemed like magically the street started to change. It turned darker, even when it was in the middle of the day. They heard cackling and almost, almost did they run back to their safe houses. The only question was: How safe would their houses be in this wicked street?
The little masked ones chuckled and brought out some lanterns. And magically the people felt being drawn to those lanterns, comforted even. And they followed the little masked ones into the house, softly chanting:"It's a party, it's a party. It's a Halloween Party"
At first all the people saw was darkness. And then a lot of candles. For a second their fear creeped up again and they looked back to see through which door they could flee. But then they looked a little closer.
On the tables, between the candles, were all kinds of treats. On the floor were soft pillows, so they could sit comfortably. The masked creatures laughed and served drinks. They almost seemed like normal humans. Almost....
Quickly the people felt their fear disapear. They started to giggle and smile. Tasted the food, drank the wine. They felt all happy and festive. They felt... enchanted. But somehow that didn't bother them anymore. It's a party, it's a party. It's a Halloween Party after all!
Join us! It's fun. Grab some treats, drink some wine. Laugh and dance with us. Sing with us. Don't be afraid. It may be dark here in the street. It may seem weird and scary. But it's just enchanting. It's our Halloween Party!
