The houses were decorated with scary decorations and created a festive atmosphere that seemed to each other. But for his emptiness was one house &#8211; Mrs. Kimbly.

His heart sank as he watched the house of his older neighbor, and it was sad that Halloween seemed to have disappeared with joy. He knew he was too old to speak himself, so he decided to act. He knocked on her door and hoped to offer his help, but Mrs. Kimbly&#8217;s answer was cold. She told him she hated Halloween and did not plan to celebrate and asked him not to bother her again.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n  window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []};\r\n  googletag.cmd.push(function() {\r\n    googletag.defineSlot('\/22756311368\/LAP5', [[300, 250], [320, 480], [336, 280], [320, 100], [580, 400], [750, 300]], 'div-gpt-ad-1728564828386-0').addService(googletag.pubads());\r\n    googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();\r\n    googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();\r\n    googletag.enableServices();\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<div alaunit=\"3\" style='text-align: center;padding-bottom: 10px;'>\r\n<!-- \/22756311368\/LAP5 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1728564828386-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 100px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1728564828386-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" class=\"wp-image-85629\" style=\"width: 616px; height: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/legendsmosaic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-105.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Kevin was injured. In the past, he did housework for Mrs. Kimbly, as if she had reduced the lawn and was always kind. He did not understand why he would be so angry on the holiday. But even though she turned him away, he couldn&#8217;t be trembling that her house should not be omitted from the Halloween spirit of the neighborhood.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Determined, Kevin hatched the plan. She said her house alone. He told his mother what had happened, but recommended that Mrs. Kimbly respect the wishes of Mrs. Kimbly and explain that some people had their own reasons that they did not celebrate certain holidays. Despite his council, Kevin was essential. He gathered decorations from the garage, carved the pumpkin, and went to the house of Mrs. Kimbly to work on magic.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>He almost finished decorating and tried to hang a plastic skeleton on one of his trees as the door opened and Mrs. Kimbly came out furiously. In her anger she knocked on Kevin&#8217;s carefully carved pumpkin and broke her to the ground.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n  window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []};\r\n  googletag.cmd.push(function() {\r\n    googletag.defineSlot('\/22756311368\/LAP5', [[336, 280], [320, 100], [580, 400], [750, 300], [300, 250], [320, 480]], 'div-gpt-ad-1728564868956-0').addService(googletag.pubads());\r\n    googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();\r\n    googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();\r\n    googletag.enableServices();\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<div alaunit=\"4\" style='text-align: center;padding-bottom: 10px;'>\r\n<!-- \/22756311368\/LAP5 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1728564868956-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 100px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1728564868956-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Kevin was destroyed, apologized and ran home quickly, tears running down his face.

He put on a vampire costume, grabbed some candies, and sat on the porch of Mrs. Kimbly to give out sweets or theater and explain that he was not at home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"225\" class=\"wp-image-85630\" style=\"width: 369px; height: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/legendsmosaic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-106.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"\/\/legendsmosaic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-106.png 225w, \/\/legendsmosaic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-106-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A moment later he heard the creaking door.
