After Tara moved out of the big Apple to a different city, she had hosted a Halloween party. She stopped going to other Halloween parties for… obvious reasons, and would only host small gatherings with her friends Chad, and Mindy, as well as her sister Sam, along with other people she’s become close with in college. Her apartment was a bit big, the rent split between the four of them, it was a nice place for a Halloween gathering.

Though some kids were playing ding dong ditch in the apartment complex, it was tuned out with loud music, laughter and drinks. All of them for once had no care in the world, no ghost face, no thinking about trauma, just pure enjoyment. You had never seen Tara so carefree and happy before tonight. You’d never seen her smile like that, you were extremely excited and happy for your friend. You and her friends loved seeing Tara happy as she has rarely been carefree or without worries lately, especially around this time of the year.

Though the party was definitely a blast. You and the group played board games, never have I ever, had lots of sweets, drinks, blindfolded games like a variation of pin the tail on the pony. Thiugh as the night progressed, it seem the kids playing ding dong ditch had gotten progressively aggressive with the knocks and doorbells, so someone at the party carelessly just opened the door and it was none other than ghost face… though it could’ve easily just been someone in the costume innocently or its someone more malicious that they wished to get away from.
