Halloween Stories for Free!
Autumn is here which means Halloween isn’t too far behind.
As some of you may know, I love Halloween tales. I particularly enjoy writing simple and silly Halloween stories with and for my boys.
Some people give plates of holiday treats or sing carols at your door. We create silly tales and share them with our friends. It makes us happy and it is our holiday tradition. And it saves you from having to hear us sing. Which we can't do. Seriously. It's awful. Take a story instead.
All stories come with treats. If you have gotten the stories before and just want the treats so your little one can enjoy them all over again, let me know and we will get you the treats.
We would like to share our stories with you. From now until October 15th, you can get free Halloween adventures.
Below is a description of the stories and a little bit about who the story might be best suited for. Shoot me an email, reply below, or text me to let me know what you would like.
If you are not local, please include your address so I know where to send your Halloween treat (or trick!).
Children's Stories for Little Ones
Creatures and Creepies
Creatures and Creepies is a Halloween counting story. Children enjoy counting the pictures on each page. Creatures and Creepies is six half pages and laminated to withstand drool. Illustrated with clip art. Appropriate for children aged one year to three years.
The House on the Hill
The House on the Hill is a rhyming story about the creatures of a house as they prepare for a fun Halloween party. The House on the Hill is ten quarter pages. Illustrated with clip art. Appropriate for children aged two to five years.
Children's Stories for Medium Ones
In the Graveyard
In the Graveyard is a rhyming story about the creatures that roam the graveyard. In the Graveyard is six half pages. Illustrated with clip art. Appropriate for children aged four to seven years. Sort of. I mean, who lets their four year old read about ghosts in a graveyard?
Pumpkin Masquerade
Pumpkin Masquerade is a rhyming story about four little pumpkins who are dressing up for a Halloween masquerade. Pumpkin Masquerade is eight full pages. It used to come with stickers that the kids could use to 'dress' the pumpkins as the story is told but...no longer. Illustrated with clip art. This story has a lot more ‘story’ to it and is probably especially appropriate for older children between three and seven years.
Quivering Quimby
Quivering Quimby is a story about a ghost who is scared of every bump and thump in the night and the calm spider who helps him to see the goodness in the darkness. Quivering Quimby is sixteen full pages and is illustrated by clip art. Quivering Quimby is appropriate for children from three to seven years. Updated from last year.
Naughty Neville
Naughty Neville is an inappropriate children's story about a little boy who delights in making mischief all night long on Halloween. Naughty Neville wreaks havoc and gets away with it...or does he?
Naughty Neville is sixteen full pages and is illustrated with clip art. I would love to tell you what ages this is appropriate for but...while it is a fun read, it is not exactly...responsible. The boys think it is hilarious...and I do too.
Because we, apparently, have twisted senses of humor.
Young Adult and Adult Stories
Grimmton
Grimmton is a despicable children’s story that is utterly and completely inappropriate for children. It ought not to be attempted by anyone really.
Seeing someone take their little sister Emerald, two brothers, Phineas and Quimby, embark on a daring and dangerous adventure in the town of Grimmton
I wrote this short story because I was a little tired of the happy Halloween stories. I wanted to read something dark and perilous, filled with repulsive Halloween creatures, and brave little boys (that remind me of my own).
The story is seventeen full pages and includes six chapters and an epilogue. It is not for children and I cannot imagine any adult wanting to reach such a despicable tale. But there it is. Order it if you dare...
A Novel Existence
According to Lilliana, it's true love. Except her chosen guy is well...still living...and she is technically not.
A Novel Existence is a short, young adult story in eleven full pages.
Fenton and Belina
What if you could see your loved ones after death? What if it was just for a short time?
Fenton and Belina is a short story in six full pages with two chapters.
And while the next one is not a Halloween story it is dark and depressing. So...
Thistle and Brexten
Living in the
oppressive and constant environment of war, Thistle is just trying to survive
day to day.
Brexten is a soldier from a nearby kingdom, weary of the war and the destruction.
When Brexten encounters the past, will he embrace it or retreat?
And when Thistle’s very existence is at stake, will she fight to live or fight to love?
Thistle and Brexten is a novella told in a short, choppy sentence structure.
*Note: None of these stories are perfect. Most, if not all, probably contain rhyming, grammar, and punctuation errors. They are simply meant to amuse - not to win precision awards.
