The Lantern Keeper
On Halloween night, Eliza dared to walk the forbidden path in Hollow Pines. There, she met the Lantern Keeper — a cloaked figure holding a pumpkin glowing green.
When he raised it, her shadow twisted, grinned back at her, and broke free.
By morning, Eliza was gone. But the next night, a new shadow walked beside the Keeper, carrying its own glowing lantern.

Would you like me to make a few micro-tales like this — each only a handful of sentences, but each with a different Halloween twist?
