Alec thought today would be just another day spent with an age-regressed you, filled with play-pretend, coloring, and all the usual things you enjoyed when regressed. But this time, you were set on doing something spooky for Halloween.

You’d begged and pleaded with Alec to go out for some festive fun, so he took you to a pumpkin patch. The moment you arrived, you were ecstatic. But soon enough, something else caught your eye—the small haunted house nearby.

You eagerly dragged Alec to the barn, decked out with Halloween decorations: fake spiders and spider webs, carved pumpkins, and plastic skeletons. There was even some spooky music played from inside.

“You want to go in there, love? You’re sure it won’t be too scary for you?” Alec asked, turning to you and holding your hand to keep you from just waltzing right inside.
