The TRICK:
Use the Sight to conjure up the "spectre" (make up a Halloween persona) of the poster above you. Are they a Trickster or a Treater? Give them a bit of an origin "Ghost Story" in a spooky tale, haunting poem or maybe their own urban legend!

Have a fiendish fun time. :)

Treater treater penguin eater!

I dunno why, but I suddenly got a memory of Roger from American Dad in my head.
Where he turned up everywhere Hailey and Geoff was to make an annoying sound "Myeeeerrrrrr!"

Not in this time, been pushing my luck with giveaways lately. Sounds like yet another interesting giveaway bjgamer!
Braggadar is a gremlin - he must not be fed after midnight, especially since last time ate so much candy during the lunch he drove everybody crazy. He's fluffy, adorable and loves to scare off other people if he's not properly fed.

I'm in for Witch it. Thank you.

BeatriceElysia is a banshee and during Halloween she wanders in this forums and shouts in goggers' ears "Try Galaxy!". :P

Thanks for the GA, I'm in for :

LOL. Nice giveaway. I'm only in for Day Of The Tentacle Remastered.

As her sub-titles openly states, BeatriceElysia is a Sorceress with a sense of humour who waits until evil juvenile extortionist gangs - I mean delightful trick or treating children - knock on the door then casts a spell with a haunting cackling laughter giving them all Trump haircuts for life that no amount of hiding under costumes can ever hide...
Thanks for the giveaway! You're the best!
Here goes my little story. Please excuse my poor English.

AB2012 was a well known player that had mastered the Polybius game, winning many local tournaments. However, he started to become obsessed with the game. He was convinced there was a hidden eidetic message behind the graphics and the gameplay.
As the game started to grow a bad reputation and was subsequently removed from many places, AB2012 started to move all across the country, living in any place where he could find a Polybius arcade machine to play. His trips led him to a grimy arcade gallery in the middle of nowhere.
That afternoon he was playing an almost perfect game of Polybius and, as he progressed in the game and learnt its deeper secrets, he has the sensation that the hidden message was about to be revealed. Unfortunately, a fire started in the place. Everybody left the gallery, but not AB2012. With tears in his eyes, he withstood the smoke and the scorching heat. He was starting to see beyond the flashy pixels. It seemed that a hidden veil was about to be lifted and the purpose of his life was within his reach, so he kept his concentration on the game. Meanwhile, in the place, the flames spread quickly. Lights went out but the Polybius machine was still misteriously turned on and working.
Then, a strange sound started to distract AB2012. It was faint and muffled in the beginning, but started to get gradually louder. It was the most horrendous, unearthly scream AB2012 had ever heard. He could bear it no more and finally left the game to turn his attention to the real world. Horrified, he discovered it was his own scream, as fire was devouring his skin and charring his bones.
AB2012 was never seen again, but his spirit is said to roam on the internet. People who contact him risk being possessed by him and forced to play that game he couldn't finish...

Penguin eater?? I'll have you know I come by this suave paunch naturally! LOL. :p

Thanks for the participation - several fun entries here and great to see all qualify. Keep them coming!
For those who don't want to be in, please feel free to join the fun and leave us a spooky tale or Halloween joke.
... penguin eater ... shush. :)

Entrants, please skip this post and write about Lone_Scout above.
Interesting intro. I would go for Vampire®: The Masquerade - Bloodlines™.
tastymonkey is a brainless monster that can read but due to a lack of this vital organ cannot remember anything. So he did read about rules of this giveaway but forgot to write something about his predecessor ;) He haunts people by promising them to do something and forgetting it 5 seconds later. He is so convincing that his unsuspecting victims believe that the thing will be done and stop caring about it only to find out later that nothing has changed.

I'm in for Day of the Tentacle Remastered
I'll be in for VtM Bloodlines.

Ghorpm is a movie about a fiendish plot to secretly turn people into vampires through use of the nighttime cough syrup and nasal decongestant Ghor PM. Tired, sick people take it hoping for nighttime relief of their symptoms so they can sleep, only for them to gradually find themselves suffering from the symptoms of vampirism. While at first it eases them to sleep, as it accumulates in the body it has less and less of an effect as they start to become a restless creature of the night so they have to take more to try to get to sleep which only accelerates the transformation.
I'll be in for Batman : Arkham Origins.

mrcrispy83 is a crispy chicken costumed sinister man from Anoka, Minnesota, the capital of Halloween, where he is known for his compulsive-obsessive urge to lure trick or treating children into his lair of torture, where he eats their collected candies and drinks blood from their tortured bodies. Although his dark deeds are well known, no one can spot him because he only appears in the dark and he wears a variety of costumes with the chicken costume being his favourite one.

I'm in for Vampire®: The Masquerade - Bloodlines™ , Batman™: Arkham Origins and The Final Station.

Kaesemeister is a former sorcerer doing some research with all kinds of potions. One day, when he drank his latest work which included some cheese pieces, his body morphed into a giant cheese whose purpose in life is to touch and contaminate everyone so that they transform too and spread the contamination. All the world has to become a giant cheese !
I'm not entering, but I wanted to commend you for your generosity. :)

And a story? Ehhh, Pouyou-pouyou is a big lovable kitty-cat who gives treats to the needy and the sugar-deprived. This has earned him the admiration of his peers and his only regret in life is lacking the opposable thumbs he needs to return their gestures of gratitude. Being a cat, his attempt at carving an intimidating battle-mask from a melon to get in the spirit of Halloween has been something of a failure, which no-one has had the heart to correct him on as it looks adorable.

War for the Overworld
Overlord + Raising Hell

In a copse of trees off the side of the highway, while the moon hung heavy and red above the naked ribs of a ramshackle barn, a low and long moan drifted down the wind, disturbing the sleep of the field rodents, startling the roosting farm hens, and causing Mother Horton's milk to sour, sickening her baby. Fortuk, abandoned by a frightened cultist, had awoken, alone, cold, and hungering...
