Halloween writing prompts.

The end of October is drawing close and that can only mean one thing: Halloween!
Where I live this celebration isn't alive. At all. Sure there are some trick-or-treaters but no pumpkins and massive garden decorations, which is sad.
It leaves my family with so little of an impression that we nearly every year have forgotten to buy candy, and the kids were too nice to give us any crazy trick to have us remember for next year.
I can't even be bothered to go to the door because they all have really boring costumes.
As I said it's quite dull around Halloween where I live, but enough about how I (don't) celebrate Halloween and more of the writing prompts.
Halloween is in my eyes a time of coziness, pumpkins and a tad of horror so here we go:
1. What is Melanie doing in an abandoned house in the middle of the night? Where is it and how did she get there?
2. The streets were bustling with people. With their satchels and baskets they walked from house to house, showing off their costumes and hoping to get some candy. A group of twelve year olds have wandered off to the end of the street to admire the hundred or more pumpkins that lit up Mr. Maire's garden. It was an eerie sight yet beautiful at the same time. They walked the narrow path to the front door and pounded on it.
Silence.
Then the door slowly open, creaking as it did so... Continue the story.
3. Her head lay at an awkward angle, one that would be impossible if you weren't... He couldn't look at her.
What have I done? He thought, his body shocking as he cried.
There she lay in the grass, between the multi-hued leaves, in a white dress. Her eyes stared up at the clear starry sky.
He couldn't take it anymore... Continue the story.
4. Deputy officer Mason Jones is called up at home. His daughter has gone missing. He will take it upon himself to find her. Write a story about it.
5. In a lighting lit lab a man is making samples. He has found a way to control the earth. The samples contain a disease and only he knows the antidote, soon people will beg him for help. Why would he do such a thing? Write a story!
Hope you enjoyed these and have a great Halloween!
